He manu nani a manuahi ka manuahi kalaunu, i helu ʻia i loko o ka Red Book. Hele ke kumu i ka wā kahiko loa. Loaʻa i nā mea i loaʻa i ka archaeological nā kiʻi o kēia mau manu i nā ana kahiko.
No lākou lākou i ka ʻohana manu, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka ʻumi mau ʻano. ʻO ka helu o nā crane kalaunu he ʻumi tausani mau kānaka, akā ma muli o ka hoʻomaloʻo ʻana o nā poho wai a lākou e noho ai, a me nā kumu ʻē aʻe, koi nā manu i ke kōkua a me ka nānā kūikawā. Aia kekahi mau kaʻao e pili ana i ke kumu o ke kalaunu ma ke poʻo o kēia mau manu i hoʻonani iā East a me ʻApelika Komohana.
Nā hiʻohiʻona a me nā wahi noho o ka manuʻi kalaunu
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia kēia mau manu i ʻelua mau ʻano - hikina a me komohana. Crane kalaunu hikina Noho ʻo ia ma Kenya, Zambia a me ʻApelika hema. Noho ka waona komohana mai Sudan a Senegal.
ʻO ka manuā kalaunu he manu ʻelima kilokika, a hiki i kahi kiʻekiʻe o hoʻokahi mika a me ka ʻēheu o ʻelua mika. He hina ʻeleʻele a ʻeleʻele hoʻi, nā pale pale i hana ʻia i nā hulu keʻokeʻo.
ʻO ka manuahi Hikina, mai ka ʻApelika Komohana, ʻokoʻa i nā kiko ma nā papalina. I ka mua, aia kahi kiko ʻulaʻula ma luna o ke keʻokeʻo, ʻo ka lua ka nui iki i ka nui. E like me nā kuhukū, loaʻa iā lākou kahi ʻeke puʻupuʻu ʻulaʻula i hiki ke pehu, a ke nānā aku nei ko lākou mau maka me ke kala polū ʻānō.
ʻEleʻele ka nuku, ʻaʻole nui a pālahalaha iki ʻia ma nā ʻaoʻao. ʻO ka ʻokoʻa nui kalaunu kalaunuʻo ia ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai kona inoa, he pūpū o nā hulu gula paʻa ma ke poʻo, e hoʻomanaʻo mau ana i kahi lei aliʻi.
I loko o ke kiʻi kekahi manu puaʻa kalaunu
Lōʻihi nā manamana hope, me kā lākou kōkua, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopaʻa i nā kumu lāʻau a me nā lāʻau no ka manawa lōʻihi i ka pō. Hiamoe pū lākou i loko o ka wai ponoʻī, pale iā lākou iho mai nā mea ʻaihue. ʻO nā wahine o kēia mau manu, ma waho, ʻaneʻane ʻaʻole ʻokoʻa i nā kāne, ʻoi aku ka māmā o ka ʻōpio, me ka muʻu melemele.
Ke ʻano a me ka nohona o ka manuʻi kalaunu
ʻO ka manuahi kalaunu, makemake i nā ākea, nā wahi wai. ʻIke ʻia ia i nā māla laiki, haʻalele i nā wahi mahiʻai, nā kapa wai o nā wai, i nā kula.
He noho maʻa mau lākou, akā hiki iā lākou ke huakaʻi he ʻumi mau kilomita i kēlā me kēia lā. I ke ao, ʻeleu loa kēia mau manu, noho i nā pūʻā nui, pili pinepine i nā kānaka ʻē aʻe.
ʻAʻole makaʻu lākou i ka poʻe, no laila aia lākou ma kahi kokoke i nā wahi noho. Akā ma mua wale nō o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka ua. A laila hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā crane kalaunu ʻia i mau pālua, hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ko lākou mau ʻāpana noho, pale lākou i kā lākou ʻāina a me nā keiki e hiki mai ana mai nā pēpē, nā geese a me nā manu ʻē aʻe.
I ka kiʻi, he kalaunu kalaunu me nā moa
ʻO ka hānai lei aliʻi ʻana
He omnivorous ka manuā kalaunu, ʻo kāna papaʻai pū me nā mea kanu a me nā holoholona. ʻO ka hānai ʻana i ka mauʻu, nā ʻanoʻano like ʻole, nā aʻa, nā kolo, ʻoliʻoli lākou i nā rana, nā moʻo, nā iʻa.
Ke holoholo nei i nā māla e ʻimi ai i ka meaʻai, ʻai nā manu kōkō i nā ʻiole me ka palaoa, no laila ʻaʻole e kipaku nā mahiʻai iā lākou. I nā wā maloʻo, neʻe nā manu i kahi o nā holoholona pepeiaohao nui, kahi e loaʻa ai nā invertebrates he nui. ʻO ia ke kumu ʻaʻole pōloli lākou a hānai mau i kā lākou keiki.
ʻO ka hana hou a me ke ola o ka manuʻi kalaunu
Hana ʻia ka moekolohe o nā mākua e ka makahiki ʻekolu. Me ka hōʻea ʻana mai o ke kau moʻo, hoʻomaka nā manuā kalaunu e nānā nani kekahi i kekahi. ʻO ka hulahula kekahi ʻano o ia ʻano hoʻolana.
I ke kiʻi, ka hulahula o nā crane kalaunu
Ke hoʻohuli nei i ka nānā iā lākou iho, hoʻolei nā manu i nā mauʻu o ka mauʻu, paʻi nui i ko lākou mau ʻeheu, hoʻoluliluli ke poʻo, a lele. ʻO kahi ala ʻē aʻe e hana ai i kēia ʻo ke kani ʻana o nā pū kani like ʻole ma ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ka ʻāʻī o ka ʻāʻī. ʻOiai e hīmeni ana, hili nā manuʻā i ko lākou poʻo i mua, a hoʻolei koke iā lākou.
E hoʻolohe i ka leo o ka manuʻi kalaunu
Ua koho lākou i kahi hoa no lākou iho, hoʻomaka nā mākua e hiki mai e kūkulu i kahi pūnana ʻoluʻolu no kā lākou keiki mai nā sedges, nā lālā like ʻole i hoʻopili ʻia me ka mauʻu. He poepoe ke ʻano o ke ʻano. Aia ia i loko o ka waihona wai ponoʻī, kahi e nui ai nā mea kanu, a i ʻole kokoke i ke kahakai a pale maikaʻi ʻia. Ke waiho maʻamau nei ka wahine i ʻelua a ʻelima mau hua, hoʻokahi a ʻumikūmālua kenimika ka lōʻihi, ʻākea a ʻulaʻula paha i ke kala.
Hoʻokomo nā manu ʻelua i nā hua manu, ʻo ka wahine pinepine i ka pūnana. Ma hope o hoʻokahi mahina he hānau kā lāua. Uhi ʻia nā moa liʻiliʻi me ka fluff brown brown; i ka lā hiki iā lākou ke haʻalele i ka pūnana a hoʻi ʻole no kekahi mau lā.
I ka wā e hiki mai ana, pono i ka ʻohana o nā manuʻoki ke neʻe i kahi kiʻekiʻe, i nā wahi mauu, i ka ʻimi ʻana i nā pepeke a me nā ʻōpuʻu ʻōmaʻomaʻo. I kēia manawa, kamaʻilio pū nā manu kekahi i kekahi, e haʻi ana i kahi i nui ai ka meaʻai, a ke piha lākou, hoʻi lākou i ko lākou wahi pūnana. Inā ʻaʻole maikaʻi ka makahiki, a laila ʻaʻole haʻalele ka wahine i kā lākou hipa. Hiki i nā moa liʻiliʻi ke lele kūʻokoʻa ma hope o ʻelua a ʻekolu paha mahina.
ʻO ka moʻo manu puaʻa kalaunu ʻo ʻia ka kiʻi
Noho nā crane kalaunu i ka nāhelehele a hala i iwakālua mau makahiki, a i ke ʻano o kahi zoo, kahi mālama, a me kanakolu āpau, no laila ua kapa ʻia lākou he mau lipi lōʻihi. Akā, ʻoiai kēia, nui ko lākou mau ʻenemi, i ka hoʻohui i nā holoholona a me nā manu nui, ʻo ka mea nui ke kāne. No nā makahiki he iwakālua i hala aku nei, ua loaʻa he hei nui loa o nā crane, kahi e hōʻemi nui ai i kā lākou helu a maʻalahi lākou i ka maʻalahi.
