He wahi kahakai kūpanaha ʻo Bogs o nā nui like ʻole. I kekahi manawa nānā nā makaʻu a hoʻoweliweli hoʻi i nā wahi nāwaliwali loa o ka ʻāina, akā i kekahi manawa ʻaʻole hiki ke lawe i kou mau maka iā lākou Eia hou, i loko o nā wahi kai hiki iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me nā manu laha ʻole a me nā holoholona e pūʻiwa ana me kā lākou lokomaikaʻi, mākau i ka helehelena a ʻano ʻē. I kēia mau lā, hiki i kēlā me kēia mākaʻikaʻi ke kauoha i kahi huakaʻi i nā wahi kai hoihoi loa o ka honua.
Swamp Pantanal
ʻO ka ʻāpana o ka Pantanal ma kahi o 200 tausani km². ʻAʻole kūlike nā ʻāina he nui i ka honua i ka pālāki o nā ʻāina pulu. Aia ʻo Marshes ma Brazil (kahawai ʻo kahawai ʻo Paraguay). Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka Pantanal ma muli o kahi ʻekekona kaumaha i hāʻule ai ka wai. Ma kēia mea, kaupalena ʻia nā ʻaoʻao o ka pali e nā pali.
Hoʻopili ʻia kahi o nā wahi wai e ke aniau o ka ʻāina. I ka ua ua, "ulu" ka puaʻa i mua o kā mākou maka. Kuhi ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi e mahalo ana lākou i ka loko nui, i hoʻopiha ʻia e nā mea kanu. I ka hoʻoilo, ʻo ka mākū kahi lepo i kāwili ʻia me nā mea kanu, ke nānā pono ʻole ʻia.
Ke ulu nei nā ʻano mauʻu, nāhelehele a me nā kumu lāʻau i kēia wahi. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona o nā kahawai nā līlia wai nui. Nui loa lākou i hiki iā lākou ke kākoʻo i kahi mākua. Ma waena o nā holoholona maʻamau, pono ke hōʻike ʻia nā crocodiles. Aia ma kahi o 20 miliona o lākou ma kēia wahi. Hoʻohui ʻia, 650 mau ʻano manu, 230 mau iʻa iʻa a me 80 mau māmela i noho ma Pantanal.
ʻO Swamp Sudd - ka mea kupaianaha o kā mākou honua
Noho ʻo Sudd i ke kūlana alakaʻi i ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe o nā kahawai nui loa o ka honua. ʻO kona wahi he 57 tausani.ʻO kahi o ka pali ʻo South Sudan, ke awāwa o ka Nile Keʻokeʻo. Ke loli mau nei ka puhaka hanohano. ʻO kahi laʻana, i nā manawa o ka ua nui o ka ua, e emi iho paha kona wahi i nā manawa he nui, a i ka wā ua, ʻekolu paha ia.
Kupaianaha ka pua a me nā holoholona o kēia wahi. Ma kahi o 100 mau ʻano māmela a me 400 mau ʻano manu i loaʻa i ko lākou hale ma aneʻi. Hoʻohui ʻia, ulu nā ʻano mea kanu i mahi ʻia i ka poho. Ma waena o nā holoholona hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ka antelope, ke kao Sudan, ke keʻokeʻo pepeiao keʻokeʻo a me nā ʻano ʻē aʻe. Hōʻike ʻia nā lau nahele e nā hyacinth, papyrus, nā ʻohe maʻamau a me ka laiki hihiu. Kāhea ka poʻe iā Sudd "ka mea ʻai wai".
Nā pali nunui o ka honua
ʻAʻole haʻahaʻa ka nui o nā kahawai ʻo Vasyugan i nā laʻana ma mua. ʻO kēia kahi ʻāina wai o 53 tausani km², aia ma Russia. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona o kēia mau pūnaewele ko lākou lohi akā piʻi iki. Ua hōʻike ʻia he 500 mau makahiki i hala aku nei he 4 mau manawa ka liʻiliʻi o nā kūpā ma mua o ko mākou manawa. ʻO Vasyugan bogs nā 800 mano loko liʻiliʻi.
Manaʻo ʻia ka mākeke ʻo Manchak kahi wahi kaumaha a pohihihi hoʻi. Kāhea kekahi iā ia he hoʻopaʻa i nā ʻuhane. Aia ka ʻāina wai ma United States (Louisiana). Ke hele nei nā lono weliweli a me nā kaʻao moemoeā e pili ana i kēia wahi. ʻAneʻane hoʻopiha ʻia ka wahi āpau i ka wai, aia nā mea kanu liʻiliʻi a puni nā mea āpau i nā ʻeleʻele-ʻalani, nā kala hina.
