ʻO ka mea kolo nui ma ka honua, ka ikaika o ke kino a me ke akamai o ka mea hahai holoholona ka mea kūpono maoli i waena o kāna ʻano. Ke noho aliʻi nei kēia holoholona ma kahi o 60 miliona mau makahiki. E pili ana i kahi kaniwā inveterate i kapa ʻia crocodile i kāhulu ʻia, makaʻu a makaʻu hoʻi i ka poʻe i kūʻē iā ia.
Hōʻike a me nā hiʻohiʻona
Hoʻonani ka nui o kahi crocodile hānai makua. ʻAʻole hiki ke nānā mālie i kēia puʻupuʻu puʻupuʻu a me ka waha nui, hoʻokomo ʻia me nā niho ʻoi. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ka crocodile i hoʻohui ʻia hiki i 6 mika. Kaupaona lākou ma kahi o 900 kg. ʻO kēlā mau palena he ʻano o nā kāne. ʻO ke kaumaha o ka wahine he 2 mau manawa ka liʻiliʻi. Mai 2.5 a 3 m kona lōʻihi.
Pono e ʻike ʻia kahi mea ola nui mai kahi ʻē aʻe. ʻO nā crocodile hānau hou, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia i nā mākua, ʻuʻuku. ʻAʻole i ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o lākou ma mua o 22 cm. Ma ka lilo ʻana i mau mākua e hiki ai iā lākou ke lilo i hekili no ka poʻe āpau.
I ka wā ʻōpio, he mea ola ia i hiki wawe loa i nā predators a pau. ʻO ka makuahine, e like me ke ʻano o kēlā me kēia makuahine, makaʻala a akahele hoʻi e pili ana i kāna keiki, akā ʻaʻole nā mea āpau e kūleʻa i ke ola ʻana i nā kūlana paʻakikī.
ʻO ka inoa o ka crocodile i kāhue ʻia i ka mea kolo i ʻike ʻia mahalo i nā hana crestal e hoʻomaka ana mai nā maka a kikoo i ke kua o ka crocodile. ʻOi iki ka liʻiliʻi, akā kāhea ʻia nō crocodile wai paʻakai i kāhulu ʻia aiʻole ka paʻakai.
ʻO ka nui kupaianaha o kēia predator ʻaʻohe mea i hoʻohālikelike ʻia i kona waha weliweli, e like me ka uhi ʻia me nā niho ʻoi, aia ma ka crocodile he 68 o lākou. Hiki ke ʻōlelo ʻia e pili ana i nā auwaha i hoʻomohala pono ʻole ʻia.
Hiki i kekahi kanaka ke hāmama i ka waha, no laila ʻaʻole hiki i nā mākala ke pale aku i kēia. Akā pani ka waha i ka manawa koke, me ka wikiwiki a me ka ikaika hiki ʻole ke loaʻa ʻole ka manawa e ʻōnohi ka maka.
Ma hope o kēlā, ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi kāne laki ke wehe iā ia. Uhi ʻia kona ʻōpū me nā unahi liʻiliʻi, ka mea, ʻokoʻa nā ʻano ʻē aʻe o nā crocodiles, mai ossified.
ʻAʻole lākou e ʻālohilohi me ko lākou ʻōlinolino a me ka nani, i hiki ke ʻike ʻia ma kiʻi o kahi crocodile i hoʻohui ʻia. ʻO kā lākou ʻoliva-ʻeleʻele a me nā kala ʻōmaʻomaʻo-ʻōmaʻomaʻo i ka wā makua e kōkua e hūnā a hoʻomau ʻole ʻia no kā lākou mea pio a hiki i nā minuke hope loa. ʻO nā ʻōpili ʻōpiopio he melemele i ka waihoʻoluʻu me nā ʻāpana ʻeleʻele a me nā kiko i ke kino holoʻokoʻa.
He maka maikaʻi loa nā Crocodiles. ʻIke lākou i kahi mamao a me ka wai. Ma ke ala, ke komo ʻia i loko o ka wai, pani paʻa ʻole ʻia ko lākou mau maka me kahi membrane pale kūikawā. Akā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻomohala ʻia o kāna hoʻolohe ʻana. Hiki iā ia ke lohe i ke kani iki ʻana.
Mai nā mea i ʻike ʻia e nā kamaʻāina kūloko, ua hoʻoholo ʻia he ʻokoʻa i kēia mau ʻano, he naʻauao hoʻi nā crocodiles. Loaʻa iā lākou kā lākou ʻōlelo kūikawā no ke kamaʻilio pū kekahi me kekahi, e like me nā ʻīlio hae ʻana a i nā bipi mooing paha.
Ka nohona a me ka nohona
ʻOluʻolu ʻo Crocodiles i ka paʻakai a me ka wai hou. Makemake lākou i nā huakaʻi lōʻihi. Hiki iā lākou ke ʻauʻau i ke kai ākea a noho ma laila no hoʻokahi mahina, a ʻoi aku paha.
Hiki iā lākou ke ʻoluʻolu i ka wai hou a me nā kahawai liʻiliʻi. Hiki i nā Crocodile ke lanakila ma luna o 1000 km ma ke kai ākea. Uhi maʻalahi ʻia kēia mamao e nā kāne. Akā, hoʻokaʻawale nā wahine i kēia moʻolelo i ʻelua.
Pehea e loaʻa ai i kēia mau mea kolo nā moʻolelo? Mai nā manaʻo o nā ʻepekema, kūleʻa lākou ma muli o ka hana maoli ʻole o lākou me ka meaʻai ʻole no ka manawa lōʻihi.
I kekahi manawa, ke makemake nui lākou e ʻai, hiki iā lākou ke ʻimi no ka manō a hoʻomau i ko lākou ala. Hiki iā lākou ke ʻauʻau mamao loa, inā kōkua ke kai o ke kai iā lākou i kēia.
ʻO ka mea ʻoluʻolu o nā mea kolo i kēlā me kēia wai e hoʻonui i ko lākou wahi noho. Noho ʻia e kahi crocodile i hoʻohui ʻia ma ʻĀnia, ʻApelika, ʻAsia, Pilipaina, ʻAukekulelia, ka Caroline a me nā mokupuni Kepani.
ʻO kēia mōʻī o nā mea kolo a me ka hekili o nā mea ola āpau e makemake i nā savannah tropical, nā pāpū ma nā waha o nā kahawai a me nā kahakai kai, ka wai mālie a hohonu.
ʻO ka poʻe e manaʻo nei he kūpilikiʻi nā crocodiles kuhi hewa loa i kēia. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, he dexterous a dodgy predator ia, e ʻike pehea e holo pono ʻole ai, luʻu wale ai, akā puka pū kekahi mai ka wai.
He mau kumu kūikawā kā ka huelo o kahi mea kolo. ʻAʻole wale kēia o ka huila hoʻokele o kahi crocodile, akā he mea kaua maoli nō hoʻi ia e hiki ai iā ia ke kuʻi i ka ʻenemi a make. Ma waho o kēia mau mea āpau, he piʻi maikaʻi nā crocodiles ma nā papa pōhaku, hiki iā lākou ke kolo i kahi lāʻau i hina a i ʻole kekahi pōhaku.
Kōkua kēia dexterity a me ka maʻalea i ka crocodile i ka hopu holoholona. Hiki iā lākou ke noho no kahi manawa lōʻihi, aneane pau loa i loko o ka wai, a laila i ka manawa koke e hoʻouka ikaika i kā lākou mea i hōʻeha ʻia a hoʻopaʻa i kā lākou mau ā ma luna.
He kaumaha ia i kekahi manawa ua lilo ka poʻe i mau mea hōʻeha iā lākou. No laila, i ko lākou wahi noho, pono ʻoe e akahele loa. ʻO ka poʻe i hālāwai me kēia mau pūkuniahi ʻoi aku ma mua o ka manawa hoʻokahi e ʻōlelo ana ʻaʻole lākou i hālāwai me kahi mea pale ʻoi loa o kā lākou iho a me ko lākou ʻāina.
Ma ka honua, ʻaʻohe lākou e hoʻouka i ka poʻe. Lilo pinepine nā hoʻouka kaua i ka piʻi ʻana o ka nui o nā predator. Ke alakaʻi nei kēia i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo e lilo ka meaʻai i catastrophically liʻiliʻi no lākou, kahi e hoʻokuʻi iā lākou i ia mau hana.
Ma ka moku ʻo ʻAukekulelia, hāʻawi ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona diabolō i nā crocodiles i kāhue ʻia a me ko lākou puʻuwai āpau lākou inaina iā lākou no ka mea ma laila ʻoe e ʻike iki ai i kahi ʻohana kahi i make ʻole ai kekahi kanaka mai kā lākou mau ā.
Wahi a nā kamaʻāina he hiki wale nō ke ola no ka ʻaʻa nāna e ʻaʻa e ʻau i kēlā kapa o ka muliwai i kahi moku, inā aia nā koka i loko o ia moku. E lūlū ka poʻe mākaʻi maʻalea i ka moku mai lalo a hiki i kona kuʻi ʻana a aia ke kanaka i loko o ka wai. He paʻakikī e puka i waho o kahi ʻano e ola nei.
Ma India, ʻoi aku ma mua o hoʻokahi manawa he mau hihia i ka wā i hopu aku ai kahi predator i kahi kanaka mai ka moku a i hoʻopau loa paha i kahi moku liʻiliʻi me kāna huelo. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona weliweli, e like me ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni weliweli. Aia nā wahi e makemake ai ka poʻe e ʻimi holoholona i kēia mea kolo. Ua alakaʻi kēia i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o lākou, no laila ua helu ʻia nā crocodile i kāwili ʻia i ka puke Red.
Meaʻai kūpono
ʻAʻole paʻakikī ka pīpī e lele i luna o ka mea pio i manaʻo ʻole ʻia me ka pā wikiwiki a hopu iā ia me nā ā āpana ikaika. ʻO ka hoʻohuli ʻana, ke kaʻapuni ʻana a me ke kuʻi ʻana i ka mea i loaʻa i ka mea kolo a pēlā i kūleʻa ai i ka haki ʻana i nā ʻāpana nui o ka ʻiʻo a ale iā lākou āpau.
ʻO ke ʻano kūloko o kahi crocodile
Aia i ka papaʻai o kēia predator nā ʻano meaʻai like ʻole. No nā crocodile ʻōpio, ʻo ka mea ʻai punahele ka iʻa, amphibians, nā mea kolo nui, nā crustacea. ʻAʻole piha nā mākua i kēlā ʻano meaʻai.
Ke ulu nei ko lākou makemake. Nā mākua hānai ʻai crocodiles mea ʻai koʻikoʻi hou aʻe. ʻO nā antelope, nā moʻo, nā holoholona, nā manu, i kekahi manawa ua lilo ka poʻe i mau mea hōʻeha no lākou. I kekahi manawa hiki iā lākou ke ʻahaʻaina ma kahi nahesa, pāpaʻa a honu paha.
I nā manawa paʻakikī loa nā ʻōpala nui i kāhili ʻia hiki ke ʻai i ke kino, akā he mea laha ʻole kēia no ka mea makemake lākou i ka meaʻai hou a ola.
ʻO ka hana hou a me ke ola o ke ola
ʻO ka wā hānau no kēia mau mea kolo mai Nowemapa a Malaki. I kēia manawa, hoʻāʻo lākou e noho kokoke i ka wai hou. Hele pinepine ʻia kēlā mau manawa me nā hakakā no ka ʻāina ma waena o nā kāne, kahi, e like me ke ola o kēlā me kēia lā, nā lanakila ikaika loa.
Hana paʻa ka wahine i ke kūkulu ʻana i ka pūnana. Nui ia, ma kahi o 7 mau mika ka lōʻihi a 1 mika ke kiʻekiʻe. Ma hope o ka moʻo ʻana, hoʻomoe ʻia nā hua i loko o kēia pūnana. Ma ke ʻano he rula, aia he 25-90 o lākou.
Ma hope o kēlā, hūnā ka wahine iā lākou ma lalo o nā lau a me ka mauʻu, a uhi ʻo ia i ka pūnana a pili mau i kāna mau keiki e hiki mai ana. Ma hope o kahi o 3 mau mahina, hoʻomaka kahi kani ʻē e lohe ʻia mai nā hua manu.
ʻO nā liʻiliʻi loa, ʻaʻole i hānau ʻia nā crocodiles i kā lākou makuahine no ke kōkua. Lawe ka wahine i ka huna huna a kōkua i nā keiki hānau hou e puka mai ka pūpū i ke kukui. ʻOiai he mau keiki liʻiliʻi a kōkua ʻole hoʻi kokoke i kā lākou makuahine.
Ua ʻike nā ʻepekema i kahi pilina ʻano ʻē ma waena o ka lakio moekolohe o nā keiki hānau hou a me ka mahana i ka pūnana. No kekahi kumu, ma ka awelika o ka mahana ma kahi o 31.6 kekelē, hānau ʻia nā kāne hou.
Me nā loli iki o ka mahana, kū mai nā wahine hou aʻe mai nā hua manu. Noho kēia mau mea ʻaihue i 75 mau makahiki, akā aia kekahi mau kenekulia i waena o lākou e ola nei a 100 mau makahiki.
