ʻO ka nahesa Arafura claret (Acrochordus arafurae) no ke kauoha squamous.
ʻO ka hāʻawi ʻana o ka nahesa warty Arafura.
Noho ka nahesa Arafura claret ma nā kahakai kahakai o Northern Australia a me New Guinea. Pili kēia ʻano i uka, nā wahi noho wai wai ma ka hema o Papua Nūkini, ʻAukekulia ʻAkau a me Indonesia. ʻAʻole i hoʻokūpaʻa ʻia kēia alo ma kahakai hikina o Cape York. Ma Nūkini, hohola loa ia i ke komohana. Hoʻonui ka hāʻawi ʻāina o ka nahesa Arafura claret i ka wā ua ma Australia.
Nā wahi noho o ka nahesa Arafura claret.
ʻO nā moʻo nahesa Arafura claret nā nocturnal a me ka wai. Hoʻoholo ʻia ke koho ʻana o nā wahi noho e ke kau. I ke kau maloʻo, koho nā moʻo i nā lagoon, backwaters a me nā oxbows. I ka wā ua, neʻe nā moʻo i nā nāhelehele a me nā mangrove. Noho kēia mau mea kolo malū a huna ʻole i waena o nā mea kanu wai a i ʻole nā aʻa o nā lāʻau, a e ʻimi i nā kahawai a me nā ʻauwaha i ka pō. Hiki i nā nahesa burgundy Arafura ke hoʻolilo i kahi manawa nui ma lalo o ka wai, a ʻike wale ʻia ma ka ʻili e hoʻopiha i kā lākou lako oxygen. Ua hōʻike ʻia nā noiʻi hiki iā lākou ke huakaʻi i nā wahi mamao i ka pō, e uhi ana ma kahi o 140 mika i ka pō i ka wā ua a me 70 mau mika i ke kau maloʻo.
Nā hōʻailona kūwaho o ka nahesa warty Arafura.
ʻO nā moʻo kolo ʻo Arafura wart nā mea kolo kolo ʻole. Hiki i ka lōʻihi o ke kino i kahi kiʻekiʻe o 2.5 mika, a me ka awelika waiwai he 1.5 m. Hōʻike nā kāne a me nā wahine i nā hōʻailona o ka moekolohe. Uhi ʻia ke kino holoʻokoʻa me nā unahi liʻiliʻi, akā paʻa keeled, kahi e hāʻawi ai i kahi ʻano kūikawā i ka helu nui. Ke kau nei ka ʻili o ka Arafura claret a hemo ʻole. Hoʻololi iki ke kala ʻana, akā ʻeleʻele ka hapanui o nā kānaka a hina hina paha me nā kaha ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele a i ʻole nā ʻope ʻeleʻele i puka ʻia mai kahi ākea ākea ma ka iwi kuamoʻo, me kahi ʻano lamineka kea a i ʻole moto i ʻike ʻia ma ka ʻaoʻao dorsal o ke kino. ʻOi aku ka māmā o Arafura warty ma lalo, a ʻeleʻele i ka ʻaoʻao ventral o ke kino.
Ka hana hou ʻana o ka nahesa warty Arafura.
ʻO ka hānau ʻana o nā nahesa wart Arafura ma Australia he wā kau ia, e hoʻomaka ana ma kahi o Iulai a hala nā mahina ʻelima a ʻeono paha.
ʻO kēia ʻano nahesa he viviparous, hānau nā wahine i 6 a 27 mau nahesa liʻiliʻi ma kahi o 36 kenimika ka lōʻihi.
Hiki i nā kāne ke hoʻohua i ka loa ma kahi o 85 mau kenimika, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā wahine a hānau keiki i ka wā e ulu ai lākou i kahi 115 mau kenimika. I nā kāne ʻelua o kēia ʻano, aia kahi mahele hoʻokele waiwai o ka ikehu ma waena o nā hana o ka ulu a me ka hoʻohua. Hoʻemi ka ulu ʻana o nā moʻo ma hope o ka hānau ʻana o nā kāne a me nā wahine, me nā wahine e hoʻonui ana i ka lōʻihi i ka lohi o ka hala ʻana o nā makahiki ke hāpai lākou i nā keiki. ʻAʻole hānau nā moʻo ʻo Arafura wart i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Hānau nā wahine i kēlā me kēia makahiki ʻewalu a ʻumi paha i ka nāhelehele. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻena kiʻekiʻe i nā wahi noho, ka nui o ka metabolic rate a me ka nele o ka meaʻai i manaʻo ʻia he mau kumu no ka lohi o ka hana hou ʻana o kēia ʻano. Hiki i nā kāne ma lalo o nā kūlana maikaʻi ʻole ke mālama i ka wai seminal i loko o ko lākou mau kino no kekahi mau makahiki. I ke pio ʻana, hiki i nā nahesa wart Arafura ke noho ma kahi o 9 mau makahiki.
ʻO ka hānai ʻana i ka nahesa wart Arafura.
ʻAi wale nā nahesa o Arafura wart i nā iʻa. Hele mālie lākou i ka pō, pili i ko lākou poʻo i loko o nā lua o nā ululāʻau mangrove a me nā kapa muliwai.
ʻO ke koho ʻana o ka mea pio kaukaʻi ʻia i ka nui o ka nahesa, me nā hiʻohiʻona nui e ale ana i ka iʻa e kaupaona ana a 1 kilo.
Loaʻa i kēia mau moʻo ka haʻahaʻa metabolic haʻahaʻa loa, no laila e ʻimi luhi ʻole, a, no laila, hānai (ma kahi o hoʻokahi manawa i ka mahina) ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o ka nui o nā moʻo. He mau niho liʻiliʻi ka paakiki nā nahesa ʻo Arafura wart, a hopu lākou i kā lākou mea pio ma ka hopu ʻana me ko lākou waha, kaomi ʻana i ke kino o ka mea i hōʻino ʻia me ko lākou kino a me ka huelo. ʻO nā unahi granular liʻiliʻi o ka nahesa wartra Arafura i manaʻo ʻia he mau ʻaoʻao sensory, kahi e hoʻohana ʻia ai e māka a ʻike i ka mea pio.
He manaʻo no ke kanaka.
Ke hoʻomau nei nā moʻo a Arafura wart i mea ʻai nui na ka poʻe Aboriginal ma ka ʻĀkau o Australia. ʻO ka poʻe kamaʻāina, ʻo ka wā maʻamau nā wahine ʻelemakule, hopu mau i nā nahesa me ka lima, neʻe mālie i loko o ka wai a ʻimi iā lākou ma lalo o nā lū a me nā lālā i uhi ʻia. Loaʻa i ka nahesa, nā aborigines, ma ke ʻano he kaulike, hoʻolei iā ia i uka, kahi e lilo ai i mea kōkua ʻole loa ma muli o ka lohi loa o ka neʻe ʻana i ka ʻāina. Mahalo nui ʻia nā wahine me nā hua manu, nona nā ovary i loko o nā embryo he nui me nā yolk reserves. Ua manaʻo ʻia kēia huahana he mālama kūikawā e nā kamaʻāina. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā nahesa i hopu ʻia e waiho ʻia i loko o nā ipu hao hakahaka no nā lā he nui, a laila ʻai ʻia nā mea kolo.
Ke kūlana mālama o ka nahesa wart Arafura.
Ma Australia, ʻo nā moʻo kope Arafura kahi kumu meaʻai maʻamau no ka poʻe Aboriginal a lawaiʻa ʻia i ka nui. I kēia manawa, hopu pio wale ʻia nā nāhesa. ʻAʻole kūpono nā nahesa Arafura wart no ke kūʻai aku ʻana i nā ʻoihana a ʻaʻole hiki ke ola i ka pio. Hōʻike ʻia kekahi mau ʻōlelo hoʻoweliweli i ka nohona o nā laha e ka ʻāpana māhele o nā wahi noho a me ka loaʻa ʻana o nā nahesa no ka hopu ʻana.
I ka wā hoʻoulu holoholona, loaʻa pono nā nāhesa wart Arafura no ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana, me ka hopena e haʻalele nā wahine i nā keiki he nui.
ʻO nā hoʻāʻo he nui e hoʻokumu i nā nāhesa wart Arafura i nā zoo a me nā terrarium ponoʻī i mea e mālama pio ai kēia ʻano, i ka hapanui o nā hihia, ʻaʻole i lawe i nā hopena maikaʻi i manaʻo ʻia. ʻAʻole hānai nā kolo, a maʻalahi ko lākou kino i nā ʻano maʻi like ʻole.
ʻAʻole i lawe ʻia nā hana kikoʻī e mālama ai i ka wart Arafura. ʻO ka nele o nā kuʻina hopu no nā nahesa hiki ke alakaʻi i kahi emi o ka heluna kanaka. Ua helu ʻia ka nahesa wart Arafura ma ke ʻano ʻo Least Concern.
