"He holoholona maikaʻi nā Elepani" - wahi a Sharikov i loko o ka puke moʻolelo a Bulgakov "Puʻuwai o kahi ʻīlio". Ka māmala ʻāina nui loa, kahi pilikua ma waena o nā holoholona. ʻO lākou nā mea nui i nā kaʻao a me nā kaʻao he nui, mai ko lākou ola a hiki i kēia manawa i hoʻopuni ʻia e kahi aura o ka pohihihi a me ka pouli.
Wehewehe ʻelepani
No ka ʻaoʻao Proboscis ka ʻelepani, ka ʻohana Elepani... ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona kūwaho o nā ʻelepani he pepeiao nui a me kahi kumu lōʻihi, a lākou e hoʻohana ai e like me ka lima. ʻO nā Tusks, i ʻimi ʻia e nā mea lawaiʻa no ka niho ʻelepani waiwai, kahi ʻano nui i ka helehelena.
Helehelena
Hoʻohui ʻia nā ʻelepani āpau e kā lākou nui nui - ko lākou kiʻekiʻe, e like me ka laha, hiki ke ʻokoʻa mai ʻelua a ʻehā mau mika. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke kino he 4.5 mau mika, akā hiki i kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona nui ke ulu a hiki i 7.5 m. Kaupaona ʻia nā holoholona ma kahi o 7 mau tona, hiki i nā ʻelepani ʻApelika ke loaʻa ke kaupaona a 12 mau tona. Kihi ka kino a nunui hoʻi, uhi ʻia me ka ʻeleʻele hina a ʻili hina. ʻO ka ʻili ma kahi o 2 cm ka mānoanoa, ʻāʻī, pā kaulike ʻole, pelu ʻia i nā wahi, me ka ʻole o ka sebaceous a me ka hou. ʻAʻohe o ka lauoho, a i ʻole pōkole loa i ke ʻano o ka hulu. I nā ʻelepani hānau hou, mānoanoa ka lauoho, i ka hala ʻana o ka manawa hāʻule nā lauoho a haki paha.
Hoihoi ia! I mea e pale ai i ko lākou ʻili mai ka lā, nā parasites a me nā makika, hana ʻia nā ʻelepani i ka lepo. Hāʻawi ka pulu maloʻo maloʻo i ka pale kūpaʻa i nā mea kolo huhū.
ʻO nā pepeiao pepeiao nui e like me ke kelepona. Hoʻokipa ʻia ka ʻelepani me lākou e hōʻalili i ka ʻili, a kipaku hoʻi lākou i nā makika me nā nalu. He mea nui ka nui o nā pepeiao - nui aku lākou i ka poʻe hema a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma ka ʻĀkau. ʻOiai ʻaʻohe ʻili o ka ʻili i ka ʻili, me ke kōkua e hiki ai ke hoʻomaʻalili i ka mahana o ke kino ma o ka huna ʻana o ka hou, lawelawe ka auricle i thermoregulator no ke kino holoʻokoʻa. Lahilahi ko lākou ʻili, piha me ka pūnaewele capillary mānoanoa. Hoʻalili ʻia ke koko i loko o lākou a pālahalaha aʻe i ke kino. Eia hou, aia kekahi gland kūikawā ma kahi o nā pepeiao, ka mea huna i hana ʻia i ka wā o ka male ʻana. Ma ka hoʻoluli ʻana i ko lākou mau pepeiao, hoʻolaha nā kāne i ka ʻala o kēia huna ma o ka lewa ma kahi mamao.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO ke kumu o nā veins ma ka ʻili o nā pepeiao o ka elepani e like me kēlā me kēia kanaka e like me nā manamana lima o kānaka.
ʻAʻole ka ihu kahi ihu i hoʻoponopono ʻia, akā kahi hoʻokumu ʻana mai kahi ihu elongated a me ka lehelehe luna. Mālama kēia ʻano muscular ma ke ʻano he ʻala a me kekahi ʻano o ka "lima": me ke kōkua ʻana, hoʻopā nā ʻelepa i nā mea like ʻole ma ka honua, huki ka mauʻu, nā lālā, nā hua, omo i ka wai a hoʻokomo iā ia i ka waha a pīpī paha i ke kino. Hiki ke hoʻonui ʻia a hoʻololi ʻia kekahi o nā kani a nā ʻelepani ma o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke kumu ma ke ʻano he resonator. I ka hopena o ke kumu aia kahi hana muscular liʻiliʻi e like me ka manamana lima.
Mānoanoa, kolamu, ʻelima mau manamana lima, uhi ʻia nā manamana lima me ka ʻili maʻamau... He mau puʻu ko kēlā me kēia wāwae - 5 a 4 paha ma nā wāwae i mua, a 3 a 4 ma nā ʻūhā hope. Aia kekahi papa momona ma waenakonu o ka wāwae, kahi e pālahalaha ai me kēlā me kēia ʻanuʻu, e hoʻonui ana i ka wahi o ka pilina me ka honua. ʻAe kēia i nā ʻelepani e hele mālie me ka hāmau. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona o ka hoʻolālā o nā wāwae i nā ʻelepani ke kū ʻana o nā pāpale kuli ʻelua, ʻo ia ke kumu e hiki ʻole ai i nā holoholona ke lele. Ke loli mau nei nā niho.
ʻO nā incisors ʻekolu wale nō o luna - nā tusph elephant kaulana - noho mau ʻole. Loaʻa ʻole i nā ʻelepani ʻĀkia wahine. Ulu nā tusks a luhi me ka makahiki. ʻO nā elepani kahiko ka nui a me ka momona o nā kua. ʻO ka huelo e like ia me ka lōʻihi o nā lālā a he palaki lauoho paʻa i ka hopena. Pākuʻi lākou iā lākou iho me lākou, e hoʻokuke nei i nā pepeke. Ke neʻe nei me ka pūʻā, pili mau nā ʻelepa i ka hiʻu o ko lākou makuahine, ʻanakē a nanny paha me kā lākou pahu.
ʻO ke ʻano a me ka nohona
Akoakoa nā ʻelepani i nā hui o 5 a 30 mau kānaka. Mālama ʻia ka hui e kahi mākua wahine makua, ʻo ka mua a me ka ʻoi loa o ka ʻike. Ma hope o kona make ʻana, lawe ʻia ka wahi o ka makua kāne e ka lua o ka hānau mua - he kaikuahine a kaikamahine paha ka mea maʻamau. I nā hui, pili nā holoholona āpau i kekahi i kekahi. ʻO ka hapanui o ka hui he mau wahine, kāne, ke ulu a nui, ua kipaku ʻia mai ka pūʻā. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole lākou e hele lōʻihi, noho kokoke a hele i kahi hui wahine ʻē aʻe. Hana maikaʻi nā wahine i nā kāne ke hiki mai ka wā male.
Ua hoʻomōhala maikaʻi ʻia nā lālā o nā ʻohana holoholona a kōkua pū kekahi. Pāʻani nā kānaka āpau i kahi kūlana - aia kekahi ʻano nursery, kindergarten a me ke kula. Mālama lākou kekahi i kekahi me ka hoʻohanohano, hānai like i nā keiki, a i ka hanana o ka make ʻana o kekahi o nā pipi, kaumaha nui lākou. ʻOiai lākou e hina i ke koena o kahi ʻelepani ʻaʻole ia no ka ʻohana, kū nā ʻelepani a paʻa, e hoʻohanohano ana i ka hoʻomanaʻo o ka mea i make. Hoʻohui ʻia, loaʻa i nā ʻelepani kahi ʻano hoʻolewa. Hāpai nā lālā o ka ʻohana i ka holoholona i make i ka lua, puhi iā ia ma ke ʻano he hōʻailona o ke aloha a me ka mahalo, a laila hoʻolei iā ia me nā lālā a me ka mauʻu. Aia kekahi mau hihia ke kanu ʻia nā ʻelepani i ka poʻe make i ke ala like. I kekahi manawa noho nā holoholona ma kahi kokoke i ka lua kupapaʻu no kekahi mau lā.
E hiamoe ana nā ʻelepani ʻApelika, e hilinaʻi ana kekahi i kekahi. Hiki i nā kāne makua ke hiamoe ma ke kau ʻana i nā tusks kaumaha ma luna o kahi puʻu mauna, lāʻau, a lāʻau paha. Hiamoe nā ʻelepani ʻĀnia e moe ana i ka honua. Hiamoe nā holoholona ma kahi o ʻehā mau hola i ka lā, ʻoiai e hiamoe ana kekahi mau elepani ʻApelika ma nā wā pōkole o kanahā mau minuke. ʻO ke koena o ka manawa neʻe lākou e ʻimi i ka meaʻai a mālama iā lākou iho a me ko lākou ʻohana.
Ma muli o ka nui o ko lākou mau maka, ʻike maka ʻole ka ʻelepani, akā i ka manawa like lohe pono lākou a loaʻa ka ʻala maikaʻi loa. Wahi a nā noiʻi e nā zoologists e hoʻopaʻa haʻawina ana i ka hana a nā ʻelepani, hoʻohana lākou i nā ʻoihana, i hiki ke lohe ʻia ma kahi mamao loa. ʻO ke kani i hoʻonohonoho ʻia i ka ʻōlelo o nā ʻelepani he nui loa. ʻOiai ko lākou nui nui a me ke ʻano awkwardness o ka neʻe ʻana, lele nui nā ʻelepani a i ka manawa like me nā holoholona akahele. Holo pinepine lākou i kahi wikiwiki haʻahaʻa - ma kahi o 6 km / h, akā hiki iā lākou ke hoʻomohala iā ia a 30-40 km / h. Hiki iā lākou ke ʻauʻau a neʻe ma lalo o nā waihona wai, e hōʻike wale ana i ka pahu i luna o ka wai no ka hanu ʻana.
Pehea ka lōʻihi o ke ola ʻana o nā ʻelepani
I ka nahelehele, ola mau nā ʻelepani i 70 mau makahiki, i ke pio ʻana he lōʻihi iki - 80 a ʻoi paha me ka mālama pono.
Akamai Elepani
ʻOiai ka nui o ko lākou lolo, kahi mea liʻiliʻi, ua manaʻo ʻia nā ʻelepani kekahi o nā holoholona akamai. Hoʻomaopopo lākou iā lākou iho i ke aniani o ke aniani, kahi e hōʻike ai i ke kū ʻana o ka pilikino iā ia iho. ʻO kēia nā holoholona ʻelua, ma kahi o nā moʻo, e hoʻohana i nā mea like ʻole i mea hana. ʻO kahi laʻana, hoʻohana lākou i nā lālā lāʻau e like me ka peahi a i ʻole ka lele lele.
Loaʻa i ka Elephants kahi ʻike, ʻano olfactory a me kahi hoʻomanaʻo hoʻomanaʻo - hoʻomanaʻo lākou i nā wahi o ka hoʻoinu a me ka hānai ʻana no nā mile he nui a puni, e hoʻomanaʻo i ka poʻe, ʻike i ko lākou ʻohana ma hope o kahi kaʻawale lōʻihi. I ke pio ʻana, hoʻomanawanui lākou i ka hana ʻino, akā i ka hopena hiki iā lākou ke huhū. ʻIke ʻia e ʻike ka ʻelepani i nā manaʻo like ʻole - ke kaumaha, ka hauʻoli, ke kaumaha, ka huhū, ka huhū. A hiki nō iā lākou ke ʻakaʻaka.
Hoihoi ia! ʻO ka Elepani ka lima hema a me ka lima ʻākau. Hoʻoholo ʻia kēia e ka ʻoi o ka tusk - wili ʻia ia mai ka ʻaoʻao a ka ʻelepani e hana mau ai.
I ka hoʻopaʻa pio ʻana, hoʻomaʻamaʻa maikaʻi lākou, no laila hoʻohana pinepine ʻia lākou i nā circus, a ma India - ma ke ʻano he holoholo a he holoholona hana. Aia kekahi mau hihia ke aʻo ʻia nā ʻelepani i nā kiʻi. A ma Thailand aia nō nā hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū pīpeku elepani.

I kēia manawa, ʻehā mau ʻano ʻelepani e pili ana i nā ʻohana ʻelua - ka ʻelepani ʻApelika a me ka ʻelepani India... Aia kekahi hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma waena o nā zoologists e pili ana i nā ʻāpana ʻokoʻa o nā ʻelepani a inā paha e noʻonoʻo iā lākou he ʻano ʻokoʻa a i ʻole e waiho iā lākou i ka mahele subspecies. No ka 2018, aia ka papa kuhikuhi o nā ʻano ola:

Ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā wahine, hoʻomākaukau, e hoʻokaʻawale ʻia me nā holoholona, a lohe ʻia kā lākou kāhea ʻana i nā mile he nui... Akoakoa nā kāne i kēlā mau wahine a hoʻonohonoho i nā kaua no ke kuleana e hoʻomau i ko lākou heihei. ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻaʻole koʻikoʻi nā hakakā - hoʻolaha nā mea hoʻokūkū i ko lākou pepeiao e ʻike i ka nui a me ka pū nui. ʻO ka mea lanakila ka mea nui a ʻoi aku ka nui.

Mea nui! ʻAʻole nā nipples o nā ʻelepani i ka pūhaka, e like me nā mammal nui, akā ma ka umauma i nā wāwae mua, e like me nā primates. Hānai nā ʻelepani pēpē i ka waiū me ko lākou waha, ʻaʻole me ko lākou kumu.
ʻO ka hānai ʻana me ka waiū o ka makuahine a hiki i ʻelua mau makahiki, a ʻo nā wahine āpau e hana i ka waiū e hānai i nā ʻelepani.

ʻEnemi kūlohelohe
ʻAʻohe ʻenemi kūlohelohe o nā ʻelepani makua - ʻaʻohe o nā mea ʻaihue e ʻaʻa e hoʻouka i kahi holoholona nui a weliweli.

Ma ka 2016, ma hope o ka "helu ʻelepani", ua helu ʻia kā lākou helu ma ʻApelika 515 tausani, a ke emi nei ka heluna kanaka ma kahi o 10% i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Aia kekahi mau elepani ʻĀnia - e like me ka Elephant Protection Fund, aia ko lākou helu mai 30,000 a 50,000. Mālama ʻia ka hapa nui i ka paʻahao, e paʻakikī ana i ka helu ʻana i ka helu.
