ʻO Tapirs he mau ʻelele o nā herbivores e pili ana i ke kaʻina o ke kaulike a me ka papa Mamalia. I loko nō o ka like o waho me nā puaʻa, loaʻa i nā tapir kahi kumu pōkole, akā maikaʻi ia no ka hopu ʻana.
Hōʻike o nā tapir
ʻOkoʻa ka nui o nā tapir ma muli o ka laha.... ʻO ka pinepine, ʻo ka awelika o ka lōʻihi o ka tapir makua ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua mau mika, a ʻo ka lōʻihi o ka huelo ma kahi o 7-13 cm.ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o ka holoholona ma kahi e mae ana e pili ana i ka mika, me ke kaupaona ma ke kaha o 110-300 kg. ʻO nā wāwae mua o ka tapir he ʻehā manamana, a ʻo nā ʻaoʻao hope o ka māmela he ʻekolu manamana wāwae.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO ka lehelehe luna o ka tapir a me ka ihu elongated i hana i kahi proboscis liʻiliʻi akā hiki ke maʻalahi, a ʻo nā wēlau e hoʻopuni ʻia e kahi lauoho pōkole i kapa ʻia ʻo vibrissae.

ʻO ke ʻano a me ka nohona
Alakaʻi ʻo Plir tapir i kahi nohona mehameha, a loaʻa i nā mea ʻelua i kahi manawa kolohe kekahi i kekahi. Kaha nā māmala wahine i ko lākou wahi noho me ka mimi, a lawe ʻia ke kamaʻilio pū ʻana me nā ʻohana e nā kani kuʻi, e like me ke ʻaʻa. Hoʻolālā nā tapir o ka pō i ke ao i nā mānoanoa, a me ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka pō e hele lākou e ʻimi i nā meaʻai.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO kekahi ʻano tapir ʻaʻole wale he poʻe ʻauʻau maikaʻi loa, akā he poʻe piʻi pōhaku kekahi, a hauʻoli pū lākou i ka ʻeli ʻana a me ka ʻauʻau ʻana i ka lepo me ka hauʻoli nui.
ʻOiai ka nui a me ka nui, ʻaʻole hiki i nā tapir ke ʻauʻau maikaʻi wale nō, akā e luʻu hohonu hoʻi. Ma ke ʻano laulā, makaʻu a makaʻala hoʻi kēia mau ʻāpana ʻokoʻa o nā lāʻau hānai, no ka ʻoka kaulike ʻia a me ka papa Mamalia. I ka hōʻailona mua o ka hoʻoweliweli, ʻimi nā tapir i kahi e pale ai a holo wikiwiki paha, akā inā pono, hiki iā lākou ke pale iā lākou iho me ke kōkua o nā nahu.
Pehea ka lōʻihi o ke ola o nā tapir?
ʻO ke ola maʻamau o ka tapir i nā kūlohelohe maikaʻi ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻekolu mau makahiki.

ʻO nā wahine o ka mauna mauna a me ka mauna tapir ma kahi o 15-100 kg ka nui o ke kaumaha ma mua o nā kāne kāne o kēia ʻano. ʻAʻohe ʻokoʻa i ke kala.
Nā ʻano tapir
ʻO nā lā e kū nei:
- Plain tapir (Tapirus terrestris) me nā hui ʻo T. t. aenigmaticus, T. colombianus, T. spegazzinii a me T. terrestris;
- Ka mauna tapir (Tapirus pinchaque);
- ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa tapir (Tapirus bairdii);
- Tapir kākoʻo ʻeleʻele (Tapirus dictus);
- Tapirus kabomani.
Hoihoi ia! ʻ suggestlelo nā kānaka ʻepekema ʻo nā tapir ulu lāʻau e noho ana ma ʻAsia a me ʻAmelika he ʻohana mamao loa o nā rhino a me nā lio, a ʻo ka mea paha, ke ʻano like lākou me nā lio kahiko loa.
Nā Tapir pau loa: Tapirus johnsoni; Tapirus mesopotamicus; Tapirus merriami; Tapirus polkensis; Tapirus simpsoni; Tapirus sanyuanensis; Tapirus sinensis; Tapirus haysii; Pūnaewele pūnaewele Tapirus; Tapirus lundeliusi; Tapirus veroensis; ʻO Tapirus greslebini a me Tapirus augustus.
Kahi noho, nā wahi noho
ʻIke ʻia nā pā kula ma nā wahi he nui ma ʻAmelika Hema, a ma ka hikina hoʻi o ka ʻAnela. ʻO ka laulā nui o nā ʻelele o kēia ʻano i kēia manawa mai ka panalāʻau o Venezuela a me Colombia a i ka ʻaoʻao hema o Brazil, ka ʻĀkau ʻo Argentina a me Paraguay. ʻO ka nohona kūlohelohe o ka mauna haʻahaʻa ʻo ka wahi haʻahaʻa ʻo ka nahele kai wahi kokoke i nā kino wai.
ʻO nā lunamaka o nā laha Mountain tapir ka hapa liʻiliʻi o ka mahele a me ka nohona ma waena o nā ʻohana āpau... ʻIke ʻia kēia mau mammal ma Andes ma Colombia, ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o Peru a me Ecuador. Makemake ka holoholona i nā ululāʻau mauna a me nā pā pono a hiki i nā palena hau, no laila he mea nui loa a makemake ʻole e iho i kahi kiʻekiʻe ma lalo o 2000 m ma luna o kaʻilikai.
Loaʻa ka lāhui tapir o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i nā wahi e moe ana mai Mekiko hema ma waena o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻia a i nā kahakai ma ke komohana ʻo Ecuador a me Colombia. ʻO ka nohona kūlohelohe o ka Tapir Central ʻAmelika kahi wahi o ka ululāʻau o kahi ʻano tropical tropical. Ma ke ʻano he rula, makemake nui kēlā mau māmele herbivorous i nā wahi kokoke i nā wai nui.
Hoihoi ia! Ua kapa ʻo ʻAsia i ka tapir "ka mea ʻai o nā moeʻuhane" a kūpaʻa mau i ka figurine o kēia holoholona i kālai ʻia mai ka lāʻau a pōhaku paha e kōkua i kahi kanaka e hoʻopau i nā moeʻuhane a me ka hiamoe ʻole.
Loaʻa nā tapir ʻeleʻele i kākoʻo ʻia ma nā ʻaoʻao hema a waena o Sumatra, ma nā ʻāpana o Malaysia, ma Myanmar a me Thailand, a hiki i ka Peninsula Malay. ʻ admitlelo ʻepekema hiki i nā lunamaka o kēia laha ke noho ma nā ʻaoʻao hema o Kambupila, kekahi mau panalāʻau o Vietnam a me Laos, akā ʻaʻohe ʻikepili kūpono e pili ana i kēia manawa. Ma ka laulaha, ʻike mau ʻia nā tapir ma waena o kā lākou pae lōʻihi, mōʻaukala, i lilo i mokuna loa i loko o nā makahiki i hala.
ʻO ka papaʻai o nā tapir
ʻAi wale nā lunamaka o nā ʻano tapir i nā meaʻai kanu wale nō. Eia kekahi, ʻoi aku ka makemake o ia mau māmele hānai i nā ʻāpana palupalu o nā nāhelehele a i ʻole nā mauʻu.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO kaʻai o nā mea hānai hānai mea waiwai a waiwai ʻokoʻa, a i ka papa o nā mea i ʻike ʻia ua hiki ke hoʻokumu ʻia ma mua o hoʻokahi haneli mau ʻano o nā mea kanu like ʻole e lilo i meaʻai na nā tapir.
Ma waho aʻe o nā lau, ʻo ia mau holoholona e ʻeleu a me ka nui e ʻai i ka limu a me nā ʻōpuʻu ʻōpio, nā ʻano moʻo like ʻole, nā lālā o nā kumu lāʻau a me nā kumulāʻau, a me kā lākou pua a me nā hua. I mea e lawa ai ka meaʻai na lākou iho, hehi pinepine nā tapir i nā ala holoʻokoʻa.
Hoʻohua a me nā keiki
ʻO ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu i ka hana ʻana o ka pilina ʻohana ma waena o nā tapir he wahine makua kolohe. Hiki ke hana i ka moena ma loko o ka makahiki. ʻO ka pinepine, pili pono kēia mau holoholona i ka wai.
Hoʻohanohano ʻia nā Tapirs e nā pāʻani moena hoihoi loa, kahi e pīpī ai ke kāne me ka wahine a holo ma hope ona no ka manawa lōʻihi, a ma mua koke o ke kaʻina hana kope, hana ke ʻano o nā kāne a me nā kani leo nui, hoʻomanaʻo nui i ke kaniʻuhū, ke kani ʻana a i ʻole kekahi mea e like me ka ʻanā. Hoʻololi kēlā me kēia makahiki i nā tapir i kā lākou mau moekolohe, no laila ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia kēia mau holoholona i ke koho a kūpaʻa paha i kā lākou ʻuhane.
Lawe ʻia ka pua e ka wahine no kahi makahiki he iki. Ma ke ʻano he kūlana, ma hope o ʻumikūmāhā mau mahina o ka hāpai ʻana, hānau wale hoʻokahi pēpē. I kekahi manawa hānau ʻia he mau keiki ʻelua, akā ʻano liʻiliʻi loa kēlā mau hihia ma ke ʻano a ke mālama nei ʻo Tapir i ka pio. ʻO ke kaupaona maʻamau o kēlā me kēia keiki hānau he 5-9 kg wale nō (ʻokoʻa ka nui o nā ʻano o ka holoholona. ʻAno like nā cubs āpau me ke kala, me nā kiko a me nā kaha. Hānai ka wahine i kāna keiki i ke kūlana supine me ka waiū i loko o ka makahiki.
Ma hope koke o ka hānau ʻana, makemake ka wahine a me ka pēpē e puʻuhonua i nā mānoanoa, akā i ka oʻo ʻana o ka hua, hoʻomaka ka holoholona e hele mālie i waho o kona puʻuhonua. I loko o kēia wā, aʻo haʻahaʻa ka wahine i kāna keiki e ʻai i nā mea kanu mea kanu. Ma kahi o ʻeono mau makahiki, hoʻomaka nā keiki o nā tapir e loaʻa i ke kala o ka pale lole no kā lākou laha. Hōʻea ka holoholona i ka wā ʻōpio, ma ke ʻano he kūlana, i ka makahiki hoʻokahi a me ka hapalua i ʻehā mau makahiki.
ʻEnemi kūlohelohe
ʻO nā ʻenemi kūlohelohe a maʻamau o nā tapir i ke kaiapuni kūlohelohe nā cougars, tigers, jaguars, bear, anacondas a me nā crocodiles, akā ʻo ko lākou ʻenemi nui a hiki i kēia lā ke kāne. ʻO kahi laʻana, ua hōʻoia ʻepekema ʻo ke kumu nui o ka hōʻemi nui ʻana o ka nui o nā tapir o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i ka luku ʻia ʻana o nā ululāʻau tropika ma ʻAmelika Waena, kahi i emi ai ma kahi o 70% i loko o ke kenekulia i hala.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO kahi mea hoihoi ʻo ka mole lōʻihi a me nā paipu hanu e ʻae i ka tapir e noho ma lalo o ka wai no kekahi mau minuke, no laila e peʻe nei mai kā lākou poʻe alualu.
Ma muli o ka luku nui ʻia o ka nohona maʻamau no ka tapir, hoʻouka ʻōnaehana kūpilikiʻi ka ʻāina mahiʻai, kahi e luku ʻia ai nā māla koko a kō paha e nā holoholona. Pana pinepine nā mea nona nā māla i nā holoholona i komo i kā lākou waiwai. ʻO ka ʻimi ʻana i ka ʻiʻo a me ka ʻili waiwai he mea weliweli ia i ka nui o nā tapir o ka ʻāina haʻahaʻa.
Heluna a me ke kūlana o kēia ʻano
Pāpā ʻia ka ʻimi ʻana i nā tapir, ma muli o ka liʻiliʻi o ia ʻano holoholona... ʻO kahi laʻana, loiloi ʻia ka Mountain Tapir i kēia manawa e like me ka hoʻoweliweli ʻia e ka IUCN, me ka heluna kanaka o 2,500 wale nō. ʻO ke kūlana o ka Tapir o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i wehewehe ʻia hoʻi me he "mea hoʻoweliweli". ʻAʻole ʻoi aku ka nui o ia mau tapir ma mua o 5000 mau holoholona.
