Nā hiʻohiʻona a me nā wahi noho o ka manatee
Manatees - nā bipi kai, i kapa mau ʻia pēlā no kahi nohona leʻaleʻa, ka nui a me nā makemake i nā meaʻai vegetarian. Pili kēia mau māmela i ke kaʻina o sirens; makemake lākou e noho i loko o ka wai pāpaʻu, e ʻai nei i nā ʻano limu like ʻole. Ma waho aʻe o nā bipi, hoʻohālikelike pinepine ʻia lākou i nā dugong, ʻoiai he skull a me ka huelo ʻokoʻa ka manatees, ʻoi aku e like me ka hoe ma mua o ka fork e like me ka dugong.
ʻO kekahi holoholona e hiki ai i ka manatee ke hoʻopili ʻia he ʻelepani ia, akā ʻaʻole pili kēia hui ʻaʻole wale i ka nui o kēia mau māmela ʻelua, akā i nā mea physiological.
I nā manatees, e like me nā ʻelepani, hoʻololi nā molake i ko lākou ola. Ulu hou nā niho hou ma ka lālani a hala ka manawa hoʻoliʻiliʻi i nā mea kahiko. Eia kekahi, he mau lou ko nā lau o nā sila elepani e like me nā kui o nā kaikuaʻana terrestrial.
Hiki i kahi manatee makua olakino ke kaupaona ma waena o 400 a me 550 mau kilogram, me ka lōʻihi o ke kino ma kahi o 3 mau mika. Aia nā hihia kupaianaha ke hiki aku kahi manatee i ke kaumaha o 1700 kilogram me ka lōʻihi o 3.5 mika.
ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻokoʻa nā wahine, no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka nui a me ke kaumaha ma mua o nā kāne. Ke hānau ʻia, kaupaona ʻia kahi manatee pēpē ma kahi o 30 kilokilo. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me kēia holoholona ʻokoʻa i ka wai kai o ʻAmelika, ma ke kai Caribbean.
He mea maʻamau ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i ʻekolu ʻano manatees: ʻApelika, Amazonian a me ʻAmelika. Kai kai ʻApelika mau bipi wahine — manatees i loaʻa i loko o ka wai o ʻApelika, Amazonian - ʻAmelika Hema, ʻAmelika - ma Inia Komohana. Kūleʻa ka māmala i ke kai paʻakai a me ka wai o ka muliwai hou.
Ma mua, aia kahi ʻimi ʻimi no nā sila elepani ma muli o ka nui o kaʻiʻo a me ka momona, akā i kēia manawa ua kapu loa ka ʻimi ʻana. ʻOiai ʻo kēia, ua manaʻo ʻia ka manatee ʻAmelika he ʻano mea ʻaneʻane pau, no ka mea, ʻo ka mana o nā kānaka ma nā wahi maoli i hoʻoliʻiliʻi nui i ka heluna kanaka.
ʻO kahi mea hoihoi ʻo ia ʻaʻohe ʻenemi kūlohelohe o nā manatees i waena o nā poʻe noho o nā wai, ʻo ko lākou ʻenemi wale nō ke kāne. Hoʻopōʻino ʻia nā sila Elephant e nā mea lawaiʻa, a ka manatee e ale ai me ka limu.
I ka manawa i loko o ka digestive tract, ka lawaiʻa lawaiʻa a me nā mea ʻeha e pepehi eha loa i ka holoholona o loko. Eia kekahi, ʻo nā propellers o nā moku ke kū i kahi weliweli nui, ka hana o ka ʻenekini e lohe ʻole ai ka holoholona, ʻoiai hiki iā ia ke ʻike i nā alapine kiʻekiʻe wale nō. Aia kekahi manaʻo ma mua o ka genus kahi o 20 mau ʻano, akā naʻe, ua ʻike ke kanaka o kēia au i ke ola o 3 wale nō o lākou.
I ka manawa like, nalowale ka bipi a Steller ma muli o ka hopena o ke kanaka i ka 18th kenekulia, aia ka manatee ʻAmelika ma lalo o ka hoʻoweliweli o ka luku ʻia ʻana, e like me ka dugong, kahi mea minamina, e loaʻa ke kūlana like i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
Eia hou, ua hoʻololi nui ka mana o ke kanaka i ke ola o kēia mau holoholona i ke kaʻina o ka neʻe makahiki i kekahi mau wahi. ʻO kahi laʻana, maʻa mau i ka wai mehana mau e kokoke ana i nā mea kanu mana, manatees kai ua oki ka neʻe ʻana e ola i ke kau anuanu.
Me he mea lā ʻaʻole kēia he pilikia koʻikoʻi, ʻoiai ʻo ka hana o nā kikowaena manatees mai hoʻopilikia i kekahi ʻano, akā naʻe, i kēia mau lā ua pani ʻia nā mea kanu mana he nui, a ua poina nā ala neʻe kūlohelohe o nā sila elephant. Ke kamaʻilio nei ʻo US Wildlife Service i kēia pilikia ma ka ʻimi ʻana i nā koho no ka hoʻomehana ʻana i ka wai no nā manatees.
Aia kekahi kaao i ka ʻike mua ʻana manatee mele i kahi mele, ʻo ia hoʻi, ke hoʻopuka nei i nā kani lohi o ke ʻano o ia, ua lawe nā huakaʻi hele kai iā ia no kahi kaikamahine maikaʻi.
Ke ʻano a me ka nohona o ka manatee
Me he mea lā, ke hoʻoholo nei kiʻi, manatee - kahi holoholona kai weliweli nui, eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole makaʻu loa kēia mau māmela nunui. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, he ʻano hoihoi loa ka manatees, akahai a ʻano hilinaʻi hoʻi. Hoʻololi maʻalahi lākou i ka pio a maʻalahi hoʻi lākou.
I ka ʻimi ʻana i ka meaʻai, ka mea e pono ai ka sila elepani i kēlā me kēia lā, hiki i ka holoholona ke lanakila ma kahi mamao loa, e neʻe ana mai ka wai kai paʻakai i nā waha o ka muliwai a hoʻi i hope. Manaʻo ka manatee ʻoluʻolu e like me ka hiki ma ka hohonu o 1-5 mau mika; ma ke ʻano he kūlana, ʻaʻole hele hohonu ka holoholona, ke ʻole nā koi e koi iā ia.
Waihoʻoluʻu makua manatee i ke kiʻi ʻokoʻa i ke kala o nā pēpē, i hānau ʻeleʻele loa ma mua o ko lākou mau mākua, hina-polū. Hoʻopili ʻia ke kino lōʻihi o ka māmela me nā lauoho maikaʻi, hoʻomaʻemaʻe hou ʻia ka papa luna o ka ʻili i nā manawa āpau e pale i ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana o ka limu.
Hāpai ka manatee i nā paws nunui, e hoʻouna ana i nā limu a me nā meaʻai ʻē aʻe me kā lākou kōkua i loko o kāna waha. Ma ke ʻano he noho, noho wale nā manatees, i kekahi manawa ke hana nei i nā hui. Hana ʻia ia i nā pāʻani moena, ke hiki i nā kāne ke mālama i hoʻokahi wahine. ʻAʻole hakakā nā sila elephant maluhia no ka ʻāina a me ke kūlana nohona.
Mea ʻai manatee
Hoʻokomo ʻo Manatee i kahi 30 kilokika o ka limu i kēlā me kēia lā e mālama i kona kaumaha nui. Pono pinepine kekahi e nānā i ka meaʻai, ʻauʻau i kahi lōʻihi a ke neʻe nei i loko o ka wai hou o nā kahawai. ʻO kekahi ʻano limu ke hoihoi no ka manatee; i kekahi manawa, ʻānai ʻia ka meaʻai meaʻai me nā iʻa liʻiliʻi a me nā ʻano invertebrates.
ʻO ka hana hou a me ke ola o ke ola
Mākaukau nā kāne Manatee no ka hānau mua ʻana ke hiki lākou i 10 mau makahiki, ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o nā wahine - hiki iā lākou ke hānau keiki mai 4-5 mau makahiki. Hiki i kekahi mau kāne ke mālama i hoʻokahi wahine i ka manawa hoʻokahi a hāʻawi ʻo ia i ka makemake i kekahi o lākou. Hoʻololi nā lā hāpai mai 12 a 14 mau mahina.
I ka manawa ma hope koke o ka hānau ʻana, hiki i kahi manatee pēpē ke hōʻea i 1 mika ka lōʻihi a kaupaona a 30 mau kilokika. No 18 - 20 mau mahina, hānai pono ka makuahine i ka bipi keiki me ka waiū, ʻoiai ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo hiki i ka pēpē ke ʻimi kūʻē a omo i ka meaʻai mai nā 3 mau makahiki o ka makahiki.
Hōʻike ka poʻe ʻepekema he nui i kēia ʻano ma ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o ka pilina ma waena o ka makuahine a me ka cub i loko o ka manatees he mea kupanaha loa ia no nā lunamakaʻāinana o ka honua holoholona a hiki ke hala i mau makahiki, a ʻoiai ke ola. Hiki i kahi makua olakino olakino ke ola i nā makahiki 55-60.
