Aloha ʻūlū lepo. Ua manaʻo ko ʻAigupita ua ʻōwili nā scarabs i ka lā ma ka lani. Hoʻokumu ke kanaka i ka neʻe huila i 3500 BC, a neʻe nā nalo shrew i nā pōpō lepo e hoʻohana ana i kēia ʻenehana 50 miliona mau makahiki ma mua o ka ʻike ʻia o nā pyramids.
ʻO ke ala maʻalahi e hoʻoneʻe i kekahi mea e ʻōwili i ka pōpō. Pili ka manure, no laila ke ʻōwili ʻia, ʻohiʻohi ʻoi aku ia i nā huna o ka manure. Ua like kēia me ka hana ʻana i nā ʻāpana o ka hau hau.
No ke aha ka manure a me ka ʻano o ka manure heaps
He hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha ia, kahi nalo liʻiliʻi e hoʻokuʻi ana i kahi kinipōpō nui o ka lepo. ʻO nā ʻōpala lepo e ʻōwili i nā kinipōpō o ka lepo, no laila ko lākou inoa. Lawe lākou i nā meaola a me ka ikehu mai ka noho. Aloha lākou i ka palu o ka herbivore ma muli o ka piha o nā meaola. I ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana, ʻaʻohe waiwai iki o ka manure o nā mea ʻai kikokiko. Akā ʻo ka manure maikaʻi e hoʻopuka ʻia e nā holoholona omnivorous e hānai i nā mea kanu a me nā holoholona.
Makemake nā nalo lepo i ka lepo "ʻala" ʻoi loa, e like me chimpanzee a me nā feces kanaka.
No ke kumu he manure
I ka hana ʻana i pōpō hou o ka lepo, koho nā beetles i kahi a ʻeli i kahi lua, kanu iā ia i ka honua, a hoʻomoe ka wahine i nā hua i loko o ka lua. Ma hope o ka hatching, hānai nā larvae o nā nalo lepo i ka manure i ʻohi ʻia.
No ke aha e hana nui ai nā beetle lepo
Minamina, ʻaʻole momona kēia meaʻai. I hoʻokahi wale nō pō, ʻolokaʻa ka beetle a hūnā i ka manure, ʻo 250 mau manawa ke kaumaha ma mua o kona. Pono ka beetle a me kāna mau keiki i nā meaʻai he nui, no laila e ʻōwili nā ʻōpala lepo liʻiliʻi i nā pōpō nunui.
ʻAʻole nā nalo āpau, i kapa ʻia nā nalo lepo, nā ʻōwili ʻōwili. Aia ma luna o 7000 mau ʻano o nā nalo lepo, ua ulu a hoʻomohala ʻia kēlā me kēia mea ponoʻī i ka lawelawe ʻana i ka coprolite.
Nā ʻano o nā nalo lepo
ʻOlokaʻa
ʻO kēia ka pūʻulu kiʻi nui loa o nā beetles, ʻōwili maoli lākou i ka lepo i nā pōpō a pīhoihoi loa e pili ana i kahi a lākou e noho ai a pehea lākou e hoʻomoe ai i nā hua, no laila uhi lākou i kahi mamao a 200 m ma mua o ke kanu ʻana i ka pōpō i ka honua.
ʻĀlia
ʻAʻole holo kēia mau ʻōpala lepo me nā puʻu lepo i 10 mau manawa i ko lākou kaupaona. Akā, hana lākou i poepoe a kanu i ka manure ma kahi a lākou e loaʻa ai.
Sedentary
ʻEli wale ka hui ʻekolu i ka manure ma kahi e waiho ai. Aia nā nalo lepo e ʻai ʻole i ka lepo, makemake i nā hua popopo, nā mea ulu popo, a nā fungi paha e ulu aʻe mai ka lepo.
ʻO 10% wale nō o nā beetles e ʻōwili i nā pōpō lepo. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā ʻano beetle e hana i nā pōpō a me nā lau kahi i loaʻa ai iā lākou nā feces.
ʻIno beetle helehelena
Noho nā Arthropods i 3 mau makahiki i ke kūlohelohe. ʻAʻole like ka nui o lākou, ʻike ʻia lākou mai nā ʻelima microscopic liʻiliʻi a i nā beetle 5-cm nui e ʻōwili manure ma nā wao nahele ʻo ʻApelika.
Loaʻa nā ʻano ʻeleʻele o ka ʻōpala a pau i nā kino ʻeleʻele, uhi ʻia me ka pūpū pale e pale ai i ka hāʻule ʻana a me nā ʻalā, akā ʻaʻole na ka poʻe hōkai. Hele ka nalo lepo, e like me ka nui o nā arthropods ʻē aʻe, hele wāwae i ka honua, akā he mau ʻeheu pū kekahi ko lākou. Ke kūpilikiʻi ka nalo lepo, hohola ia i kona mau ʻeheu a lele aku.
Pehea e hānau ai nā nalo lepo
Me ka hāpai ʻana i kā lākou mau puʻupuʻu i luna, hoʻokuʻu nā kāne i kahi pheromone, e aʻo aku nei i nā wahine i ka uku ʻono e kali nei iā lākou. Pono nā wahine i pōpō momona o ka coprolite kahi e waiho ai lākou i kā lākou mau hua. Hana ka wahine i nā hua he 5 wale nō i kona ola, no laila picky ʻo ia i nā pili.
Nā ʻano ʻokoʻa o nā hana male
ʻOlokaʻa ke kāne i ka manure, ukali ka wahine iā ia. Hele kekahi mau wahine ma luna o ke kinipōpō lepo, no laila ke pākuʻi hou nei ke kāne i ke kaupaona! Hoʻokomo kekahi mau kāne i ka pōpō i loko o ke ana, kū ma luna o ko lākou poʻo, hoʻokuʻu i ka pheromone, a hoʻowalewale i ka wahine i loko o ka pūnana eli.
Hoʻomoʻa ka larva beetle lepo mai nā hua moa e hānai ana i ka pōpō lepo mai loko mai, ʻai nā mākua beetles i waho o ka pōpō.
