ʻO ka ʻōpū ʻo ia kahi holoholona ākea o Australia e like me ka bea liʻiliʻi a me ka hamster i ka manawa like. Noho lākou i lalo o ka honua, hāpai i nā pēpē i loko o kahi ʻeke a hiki ke lanakila i kahi ʻīlio.
Ka wehewehe o ka ʻōpū
He kino ko ka ʻōpū a hiki i 130 kenimika ka lōʻihi a kaupaona ʻia a 45 mau kilokika. Aia kekahi mau ʻano ʻōpū, ʻo ka lae ākea ka mea nui loa. I ka wā kahiko, ua nui aku nā ʻano, a ua hōʻoia ʻia ke ola ʻana o kahi holoholona a hiki i ka 200 kg, i noho ma kahi o 11,000 mau makahiki i hala. Ma ka laulā, ua ʻike ʻia nā ʻōpū ma kahi o 18 miliona mau makahiki i hala aku nei a he nui nā ʻano, a ma waena o lākou he pilikua, ka nui o kahi rhinoceros.
ʻO nā ʻōpū o kēia wā ua momona a maikaʻi. I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole pololei loa kēia. He kuʻikahi ke kino o ka ʻōpū a ʻae ʻia ʻaʻole wale ia e holo pono, akā e piʻi i nā kumulāʻau a ʻauʻau. ʻOiai e holo ana, hiki i ka ʻōpū ke hiki i nā wikiwiki a hiki i 60 km / h!
ʻO ke kala o kēia holoholona e hilinaʻi nui i nā ʻano kikoʻī. Eia nō naʻe, hoʻomalu ʻia nā lunamakaʻāinana āpau e nā hina a me nā aka brown. Pākuʻi ka pale, laumania, uhi like i ka ʻaneʻane o ke kino holoʻokoʻa. I ka hapa nui o nā ʻōpū, ʻo ka ihu e uhi ʻia me ka hulu hipa.
He wāwae ikaika loa ko Wombats me nā manamana ʻelima a me nā māiʻuʻu ikaika. Hoʻohui piha ʻia ko lākou kinona no ka ʻeli ʻana i ka honua kūpono.
ʻO ka nohona Wombat
Noho nā Wombats i nā lua a lākou e ʻeli iho ai. Kūpilikiʻi ke ʻano o ka lua a hōʻike pinepine i kahi ʻōnaehana holoʻokoʻa. Ke noho ʻelua a ʻoi paha mau ʻōpū i kahi wahi liʻiliʻi, hiki ke kuʻe i kā lāua mau lua. I kēia hihia, hoʻohana nā "ʻona" āpau iā lākou. Hoʻohana ʻia nā lua i nā ʻōpū ma ke ʻano he mau wahi noho a me kahi puʻuhonua mai kahi makaʻu hiki ʻole.
ʻO ka mōʻaukala, ʻaʻohe ʻenemi kūlohelohe o nā ʻōpū. No ka ʻīlio dingo i lawe ʻia mai a me ka diabolō Tasmanian wale nō ka hoʻoweliweli. ʻOiai ko lākou liʻiliʻi, hiki i nā ʻōpū ke pale aku me ka maikaʻi, a hana lākou ia mea i kahi ala maʻamau ʻole loa.
Ma ke kua o ke kino o nā ʻōpū āpau aia kahi "substrate" ʻoʻoleʻa o ka ʻili mānoanoa, ka iwi iwi a me nā iwi. He paʻakikī loa e hōʻino iā ia me nā niho a i ʻole nā māiʻuʻu, no laila pani ka ʻōpū i ka puka o ke ana me ka hope o ke kino a ālai i ka puka no ka hapa nui o nā mea komo hewa. Inā komo ke komo i loko o ka hale, a laila ʻaʻole i hoʻi ka malihini. Hiki i ka ʻōpū ke paʻi i kahi kihi a ʻokiʻoki i ka ʻīlio Dingo. Ma waho o ke kaomi me ka "pale" o ke kua, ua ʻike ʻo ia i ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā hahau ikaika me kona lae, e hana ana e like me ka pipi.
He holoholona hihiu ka ʻōpū. E like me nā marsupial ʻē aʻe, ʻai ʻo ia i ka mauʻu, lau a me nā aʻa. Hoʻopili pū ka papaʻai i nā huaale like ʻole, nā hua a me nā limu. No ke ola piha, pono kahi ʻōpū i kahi nui haʻahaʻa o ka wai.
ʻO Wombats a me ke kāne
ʻOiai ko lākou ʻano hakakā, ʻike ʻia nā ʻōpū e kahi ʻano maikaʻi. Makemake nā holoholona Tamed i ke aloha a me ka stroking, e maʻa maʻalahi i nā kānaka. Mālama pinepine ka poʻe kamaʻāina i nā ʻōpū me he holoholona lā. Me kekahi hana, hiki ke hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia kēia holoholona. I ka manawa like, ʻaʻole ia e koi ʻia e komo i kahi pili kokoke me nā holoholona hihiu. ʻO kahi ʻōpū kaumaha a ikaika hoʻi, i mākaukau me nā māiʻuʻu, hiki ke lilo i mea weliweli a hiki i ke kanaka makua.
ʻO ka heluna o ka ʻōpū, ma ka nui, ʻaʻole e emi. Eia nō naʻe, me ka hoʻonui ʻia o ke alo o nā kānaka ma ka ʻāina nui Australia, aneane nalowale kekahi ʻano ʻokoʻa - ka Kuini. I kēia manawa aia ma kahi o hoʻokahi haneli o kona mau lunamakaʻāinana e noho nei i kahi mālama mālama kūikawā ma Queensland.
