Wahi a nā ʻike kūhelu, kapa ʻia ka lio o Przewalski ma hope o ka mākaʻikaʻi Lūkini nāna i wehewehe i ka waena o ke kenekulia 19. Ma hope, ua ʻike ʻia ua ʻike ʻia a wehewehe ʻia ma mua, i ke kenekulia 15, e ka mea kākau Kelemania ʻo Johann Schiltberger, nāna i ʻike a wehewehe i kēia lio i kāna diary ʻoiai e hele ana i Mongolia, ma ke ʻano he pio o ka Mongol khan ʻo Egei ka inoa. Ma nā mea āpau āpau, i kēia manawa ua kamaʻāina maikaʻi nā Mongola i kēia holoholona, ʻoiai lākou i kapa ʻia ʻo "takhki". Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole i loaʻa kēia inoa, a ua kapa lākou iā ia ma muli o ke Kanalā Nikolai Przhevalsky.
Mai ka hopena o ke kenekulia 19, ʻaʻole i loaʻa hou kēia mau lio i ka steppes hihiu o Mongolia a me Kina, akā ua hoʻomāhelehele ʻia a mālama ʻia i ka pio. I kēia mau lā, ke hoʻāʻo nei nā meaolaola e hoʻihoʻi hou iā lākou i ko lākou wahi noho maoli.
Nā Ana a me nā helehelena
He kino liʻiliʻi ko kā Przewalski lio i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana me kā lākou ʻohana hānau. Eia nō naʻe, muscular a stocky. He poʻo nui ko lākou, ʻāʻī manoanoa a me nā wāwae pōkole. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe ma kahi maloʻo e pili ana iā 130 cm. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke kino he 230 cm. ʻO ke kaulike kaulike ma kahi o 250 kg.
He kala pāʻani maikaʻi loa ko nā lio. Ua pena ka ʻōlohelohe i ko lākou ʻōpū i nā kala keʻokeʻo melemele, a ʻokoʻa ke kala o ka croup mai ka beige a i ka brown. Pololei a pōʻeleʻele ka mane, aia ma ke poʻo a me ka ʻāʻī. Ua pena ʻeleʻele ʻia ka huelo, he māmā ka maka. Aia nā kaha ma nā kuli, hāʻawi iā lākou i kahi ʻano like me nā zebras.
Kahi nohona kamaʻāina
E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia ma mua, ua loaʻa nā lio o Przewalski i ka steppes Mongolian o ka Desert Gobi. ʻOkoʻa kēia wao akua mai ka Sahara ma kahi ʻāpana liʻiliʻi o ia kahi wao one. He maloʻo loa ia, akā he mau punawai, ʻāpana, ulu lāʻau a me nā mauna kiʻekiʻe ka ʻāina, a he nui nā holoholona. Hōʻike ka steppes Mongolian i ka wahi hānai nui loa o ka honua. ʻO Mongolia kahi ʻāina e like me ka nui o ʻApelika. ʻO kēia ka mea ʻoi loa, ʻoiai hiki ke piʻi aʻe nā mahana o ke kauwela i + 40 ° C a hiki ke hāʻule nā mahana hoʻoilo i -28 ° C.
Ma ka liʻuliʻu, luku ʻia a hoʻomake holoholona ʻia paha ka poʻe, a ʻo ia ka mea i alakaʻi ʻia ai i ko lākou make ʻana i ka nahelehele. I kēia lā, ua kapa ʻia nā lio "hihiu" nā mea i ka nui o Australia a i ʻole ʻAkau ʻAmelika, i pakele ai mai nā poʻe a hoʻi i ko lākou wahi maoli.
Kaʻai kūpono a me ka nohona kaiaulu
I ka nahelehele, hānai nā lio o Przewalski i ka mauʻu a haʻalele i nā nāhelehele. E like me nā zebras a me nā hoki, pono i kēia mau holoholona e hoʻopau i ka nui o ka wai a me nā meaʻai ʻino.
I nā zoo, ʻai lākou i ka mauʻu, nā mea ʻai a me ka mauʻu. Eia kekahi, i ka wā e hiki ai, hoʻāʻo lākou e hānai iā lākou i ka nāhelehele no kekahi mau hola i ka lā.
Ma waho o nā zoo, huddle nā holoholona i loko o nā bipi. ʻAʻole ikaika lākou. ʻO nā holoholona he mau wahine, nā keiki kāne a me kahi kāne kāne nui. ʻO kahi mea hoihoi ʻo ia ka noho ʻana o nā lio lio ʻōpio i nā hui kaʻawale.
Hānau nā wahine i nā keiki no 11-12 mau mahina. I ka hoʻopaʻa pio ʻana, ʻike pinepine ʻia nā hihia o ka hānau ʻole, ʻaʻole i noiʻi piha ʻia ke kumu o ia mea e ka ʻepekema. No laila, noho ka helu o lākou i kahi pae haʻahaʻa, a ʻaʻole nui ka hoʻonui.
Nā mea hoihoi mai ka moʻolelo
Ua ʻike ʻia ka lio o Przewalski e ka ʻepekema Komohana i ka makahiki 1881 wale nō, i ka wā a Przewalski i wehewehe ai. I ka makahiki 1900, ua mālama ʻia kahi mea kālepa Kelemania ʻo Karl Hagenberg, nāna i hāʻawi i nā holoholona exotic i nā zoo a puni ʻo ʻEulopa. I ka manawa o ka make ʻana o Hagenberg, ka mea i hana ʻia ma 1913, ka hapa nui o nā lio i ka pio. Akā ʻaʻole i kau ʻia ka hewa ma kona poʻohiwi. I kēlā manawa, ua hōʻeha ka nui o nā holoholona i ka lima o ka poʻe ʻimi holoholona, ka nalowale ʻana o ka wahi noho a me nā hoʻoilo ʻoi loa i ka waena o nā makahiki 1900. ʻO kekahi o nā pipi i noho ma Ukraine ma Askania Nova i hoʻopau ʻia e nā koa Kelemania i ka wā o ka noho ʻana o ke Kaua Honua ʻElua. I ka makahiki 1945, he 31 wale nō kanaka i loko o ʻelua mau zoo - Munich a me Prague. I ka pau ʻana o nā makahiki 1950, he 12 mau lio wale nō i koe.
