ʻO Kulan (Equus hemionus) kahi holoholona hoofed mai ka ʻohana equine. Ma waho, he like ia me ka hoki a Przewalski's lio, eia naʻe, ʻo kēia holoholona aloha manuahi, ʻokoʻa nā ʻohana like, ʻaʻole i hoʻomamoana ʻia e ke kanaka. Eia nō naʻe, ua hiki i nā ʻepekema ke hōʻoia i ke mahalo i ka ʻike loea DNA ʻo nā kūpuna nā kūpuna mamao loa o nā hoki o kēia wā e noho nei ma ka ʻāina ʻApelika. I ka wā kahiko, hiki ke loaʻa iā lākou ma ʻAkau ʻAkau, ka Caucasus a me Iāpana. Ua loaʻa nā koena fossilized ma Arctic Siberia. Ua hōʻike mua ʻia ke kulanui e nā ʻepekema i ka makahiki 1775.
Hōʻike o ke kulanui
I ke kala, hoʻomanaʻo hou ke kulanui i ka lio o Przewalski, no ka mea, he lauoho beige, ʻoi aku ka māmā o ka waha a me ka ʻōpū. Kū ka mane ʻeleʻele ma ka iwi kuamoo holoʻokoʻa a he puʻupuʻu liʻiliʻi a paʻakikī hoʻi ia. ʻOi aku ka pōkole o ke kapa a ʻoi pololei i ke kauwela, a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi a me ka curly i ka hoʻoilo. Lahilahi a pōkole hoʻi ka huelo, me kahi kākāhi kūikawā ma ka hope.
Hiki ka lōʻihi o ke kulanui i ka 170-200 cm, ke kiʻekiʻena mai ka hoʻomaka o nā mākia a hiki i ka hopena o ke kino he 125 cm, ʻo ke kaumaha o ke kanaka makua mai 120 a 300 kg. ʻOi aku ka nui o ke kula ma mua o ka hoki maʻamau, akā ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o ka lio. ʻO kona hiʻohiʻona ʻokoʻa nā pepeiao elongated lōʻihi a me kahi poʻo nui. I ka manawa like, ʻololī nā wāwae o ka holoholona, a hoʻolōʻihi ʻia nā kuʻi.
Ka nohona a me ka meaʻai
ʻO nā Kulans he mau mea ulu lāʻau, no laila, hānai i nā meaʻai mea kanu. ʻAʻole lākou whimsical i ka meaʻai. Pili aloha loa i ko lākou nohona kamaʻāina. Aloha lākou i ka hui o nā kulana ʻē aʻe, akā mālama lākou i ke koena me ka akahele. Mālama ikaika nā lio i kā lākou pua kāne a me nā keiki. Minamina, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka hapalua o nā keiki a ke kumu make i make ma mua o ko lākou hiki ʻana i ke oʻo moekolohe, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻelua mau makahiki. ʻOkoʻa nā kumu - he predators kēia a me ka nele o ka meaʻai.
ʻO ka pinepine, hui nā kāne kāne makua i mea e pale aku ai i nā ʻīlio hae, e hakakā ana me kā lākou mau hooves. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ke kumu nui o ka pale ʻana i nā kulans mai ka poʻe hōkai, ʻo ia ka wikiwiki, a, e like me nā heihei, hiki ke piʻi i 70 km i kēlā me kēia hola. Minamina, ʻo ko lākou wikiwiki i ʻoi aku ma mua o ka wikiwiki o kahi pōkā, kahi e hoʻopōkole ai i ke ola o kēia mau holoholona nani. ʻOiai ke ʻano o ka pale ʻia nā ʻano lūlū, ʻimi pinepine nā mea ʻai holoholona iā lākou no ko lākou ʻili waiwai a me ka ʻiʻo. Pana wale nā mahiʻai iā lākou i mea e hemo ai nā waha keu e ʻai i nā mea kanu a nā holoholona hānai e ʻai ai.
No laila, ʻo ke ola o nā kulans i ka nahelehele he 7 mau makahiki wale nō. I ka pio ʻana, pāpālua ʻia kēia wā.
Reintroduction o nā ʻaka
ʻO nā hoki hihiu ʻĀkia a me nā lio o Przewalski i noho mua i kahi o steppe, semi-Desert a me nā wahi wao nahele, akā ua pau nā lio o Przewalski i ka nāhelehele, a ua nalowale nā ʻaka i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia 20, koe wale no kahi heluna kanaka liʻiliʻi ma Turkmenistan. Mai ia manawa, ua pale ʻia kēia mau holoholona.
Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ʻo Bukhara Breeding Center (Uzbekistan) ma 1976 no ka hana hou ʻana a me ka mālama ʻana o nā ʻano ungulate hihiu. I ka makahiki 1977-1978, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻelima mau kāne (ʻelua kāne a ʻekolu mau wahine) i loko o kahi mālama mai ka mokupuni ʻo Barsa-Kelmes ma ke Kai Aral. Ma 1989-1990, ua hoʻonui ka hui i 25-30 mau kānaka. I ka manawa like, ua lawe ʻia ʻewalu mau lio o Przewalski mai ka hale kiaʻi o Moscow a me St. Petersburg i ka ʻāina.
I ka makahiki 1995-1998, ua mālama ʻia kahi ʻano o nā ʻano o nā ʻano ʻelua, e hōʻike ana i ka hoʻoliʻiliʻi o nā kulana i nā kūlana semi-wao akua (e hele i ka ʻatikala "Nā holoholona o nā wao akua a me nā wao akua).
No laila, mahalo i nā hana i hoʻohui ʻia a nā mea hoʻoulu Uzbek, i kēia lā ʻaʻole hiki ke loaʻa nā kulan ma ka nui o nā mālama o Uzbekistan, akā ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau hoʻi o India, Mongolia, Iran a me Turkmenistan.
