He manu nani ia, i helu ʻia i loko o ka Buke Ulaula ma ke ʻano he lāhui ʻane pau ʻole. Noho ʻo ia ma ka ʻāina hikina loa, e noho nei, me nā mea ʻē aʻe, nā panalāʻau Lūkia, e laʻa me Sakhalin.
Ka wehewehe o ka manuahi Kepani
Nui a manuahi kēia manuahi a hāʻawi ʻia i ke poʻo o ka manuahi nui loa ma ka honua. ʻOi aku ʻo ia i ka hapalua mika kona lōʻihi a ʻoi aku kona kaumaha ma mua o 7 kilokilo. Ma waho aʻe o ka nui poʻokela, ʻike ʻia ka manu e kahi ʻano maʻamau ʻole. ʻAneʻane keʻokeʻo nā plumage āpau, me nā ʻeheu. Aia kekahi "pāpale" ʻulaʻula ma ka ʻaoʻao luna o ke poʻo o nā mākua. Hoʻokumu ʻia ia ʻaʻole e ka hulu, e like me nā mea ulu lāʻau, akā na ka ʻili. ʻAʻohe hulu o kēia wahi i nā mea āpau, a he ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula kā ka ʻili.
ʻAʻohe ʻokoʻa kala i waena o nā kāne a me nā wahine, a me nā mea ʻike ʻē aʻe. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia ke kāne manuā Kepani e ka nui iki. Akā he nui nā ʻokoʻa i ka helehelena o nā mākua a me nā "ʻōpio".
Hoʻomaopopo ʻia nā ʻōpio o ka manuā Kepani e nā ʻano kala like ʻole i ka plumage. ʻO kā lākou hulu i keʻokeʻo, hina, ʻeleʻele a me ka brown. A ʻaʻohe ʻāpana ʻulaʻula ʻokoʻa ma ke poʻo. Hele "ʻōhule" kēia wahi i ka oʻo ʻana o ka manu.
Ma hea kahi e noho ai ka manu ʻā Kepani?
Uhi ka wahi noho o nā manu hihiu o kēia ʻano i kahi o kahi o 84,000 kilomika kilomika. Kūpono ka wahi āpau i ka moku o ka Hikina Hikina a me nā mokupuni ʻo Iapana. I ka manawa like, hoʻokaʻawale nā ʻepekema i nā crane Kepani i ʻelua mau "hui". Noho wale kekahi o lākou ma nā Mokupuni Kuril, a ʻo ka mokupuni Kepani ʻo Hokaido. ʻO ka lua o ka pūnana ma nā kapa o nā muliwai o Lūkia a me Kina. ʻO nā manuʻā e noho ana ma ka "ʻāina nui" e lele i nā kau. Me ka hōʻea ʻana o ka hoʻoilo, hoʻouna ʻia lākou i Kōlea a me kekahi mau wahi mamao o Kina.
No kahi noho hōʻoluʻolu, koi ka manuā Kepani i kahi wahi pulu, a me ke kai hoʻi. Ma ke ʻano he kūlana, noho kēia mau manu ma kahalaha, nā awāwa, nā muliwai i hoʻopulu ʻia e ka sedge a me nā mauʻu mānoanoa. Hiki iā lākou ke pūnana i nā māno pulu, ke hāʻawi ʻia kahi waihona ma kahi kokoke.
Ma waho o ke aniau anu a me ka loaʻa o nā hale hilinaʻi, ʻike nui ʻia ka ʻike maikaʻi ma nā ʻaoʻao āpau no ka manuʻū. He manu huna ʻo ka manuā Kepani. Hōʻalo ʻo ia i ka hui ʻana me kekahi kanaka a ʻaʻole hoʻi e noho kokoke i kona wahi noho, nā ala nui, a me ka ʻāina mahiʻai.
Auila
E like me ka hapanui o nā ʻano manu ʻē aʻe, aia i ka poʻe Kepani kahi ʻano moena o ka moena. Aia i loko o kahi mele hui kūikawā o ka wahine a me ke kāne, a me ka noho aloha ʻana no ka "soul mate". Hana ke kāne manuahi i nā ʻano hula like ʻole.
I kahi paʻa manuʻū, ma ke ʻano he kūlana, aia ʻelua mau hua manu. Hoʻokahi paha mahina ka hoʻoulu ʻana, a kūʻokoʻa loa nā moa i 90 mau lā ma hope o ka hānau ʻana.
ʻO nā meaʻai a ka manuʻalani he ʻokoʻa loa. ʻO ka "papa inoa" ka mea i hoʻomalu ʻia e nā meaʻai holoholona, e like me nā iʻa aquatic, amphibians, iʻa, a me nā rodents liʻiliʻi. Mai nā meaʻai mea kanu, ʻai ka manuʻā i nā wana a me nā rhizome o nā mea kanu like ʻole, nā ʻōpuʻu lāʻau, a me nā hua palaoa, ka palaoa a me ka laiki.
ʻO ka manuahi Kepani, pono i kahi kikoʻī, nā ʻano hihiu no ka noho ʻana, pilikia ʻino ʻia mai ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka mahiʻai a me ka ʻoihana. ʻO nā wahi he nui kahi i ʻike ai ka manu i nā wahi mālie no ka pūnana i kēia manawa ua hoʻomalu ʻia e nā kānaka. Ke alakaʻi nei kēia i ka hiki ʻole o ke kau ʻana i nā hua manu a me ka hōʻemi ʻana o ka nui o nā manuʻio. I kēia manawa, kuhi ʻia ka nui o nā manu ma 2,000 mau kānaka no ka honua holoʻokoʻa. ʻO ka manuʻa ʻAmelika wale nō, ka mea e kokoke ana i ka make loa, he helu ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi.
