ʻO ka ʻāʻī rattlesnake (Crotalus ruber) pili i ke kauoha squamous.
Hoʻokaʻina o ka ʻāʻī ʻāʻī.
Hoʻolahalaha ʻia ka ʻāhi ʻulaʻula ma Kaleponi Hema, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, ʻAlani, Riverside, Imperial, a me nā kalana ʻo San Diego. Ma Kaleponi lalo, loaʻa ia ma ka palena a puni ka peninsula a ma nā mokupuni ʻo Angel de la Guarda, Danzante, Montserrat, San Jose, San Lorenzo de Sur, San Marcos, Cedros, Santa Margarita.
Nā wahi noho o ka ʻie ʻulaʻula.
Noho ka ʻiole ʻulaʻula i ka wao akua a i ʻole i nā nāhelehele kahakai kahakai. Noho i nā ululāʻau ʻoaka, nāhelehele deciduous tropical a i kekahi manawa me nā kula a me nā mea kanu. ʻIke pinepine ʻia ia i nā wahi haʻahaʻa. Ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ka laulā, ʻoi aku ka makemake o ka rattlenake i nā wahi noho me nā puka pōhaku. Hōʻalo kēia ʻano nahesa i nā wahi ʻoihana a makemake e hele i nā ala nui.
Nā hōʻailona kūwaho o kahi ʻāhi ʻulaʻula.
Hoʻomaopopo ka poʻe loea i ʻehā mau ʻāpana o ka rattlenake ʻulaʻula. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau o ka laulā, he brick-red, ʻulaʻula-hina, ʻalani a ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo kēia me nā ʻōpū ʻōmaʻomaʻo māmā. I ka hema hema o Kaleponi, ʻeleʻele melemele lākou a i ʻole brown brown.
Aia kahi lau ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula i ka ʻaoʻao dorsal o ke kino, a hoʻokaʻawale ʻia e kahi ʻāpana keʻokeʻo a beige paha ma ka ʻaoʻao mua o ke kino. Hoʻokumu ʻia ke kumu hoʻohālikelike e nā ʻāpana 20-42, ʻoiai he maʻa mau ʻo 33- 35. Aia paha ma kahi ʻaoʻao nā ʻano liʻiliʻi, ʻeleʻele. Pākuʻi ʻia nā unahi Dorsal a ʻaʻohe kākalaioa, me ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻole ʻia i nā lālani 1-2. ʻEleʻele ka māhele proximal o ka rattle a he 2-7 mau apo ʻeleʻele ka huelo. ʻO nā kānaka e noho ana i nā ʻāina ʻĀinapuniʻole he ʻāpana ʻāpana 13.
Eia nō naʻe, nalowale kekahi mau nāhesa ma San Lorenzo de sur i nā ʻāpana i ka wā o ka molting, a ma kahi o ka hapa o nā moʻo ma kēia mau wahi i loaʻa ʻole nā ʻiole. He poʻo triangular ko ka rattlesnake ʻulaʻula, ʻulaʻula me kahi ʻāpana diagonal ʻeleʻele e hoʻonui ana mai ka lihi lalo o ka maka a i ke kihi o ka waha. Holo kahi mua o ke kala i mua. Aia nā lua hoʻopaʻa wela ma nā ʻaoʻao a ʻelua o ke poʻo, ma waena o nā puka ihu a me nā maka. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke kino ʻo 162.5 cm, ʻoiai kekahi o nā moʻo he 190.5 cm ka lōʻihi. ʻOi aku ka nui o nā kāne ma mua o nā wahine.
ʻO ka hana hou ʻana o ka rattlesnake ʻulaʻula.
ʻO ke kau moʻo i nā ʻāhi ʻulaʻula keu mai Malaki a Mei, ʻoiai i ka moʻo pio hiki ke hana i ka makahiki holoʻokoʻa. Ke ʻimi nei nā kāne i nā wahine, ʻo ka male ʻana he mau hola. Hānau ka wahine i nā keiki no 141 - 190 mau lā, hānau ka 3 i ka 20 cubs. Hōʻike nā nahesa ʻōpio mai Iulai a Kekemapa, ma ʻAukake a Sepatemaba paha. Ua like lākou me nā mākua a 28 - 35 cm ka lōʻihi, akā pena ʻia i ke kala hina hina. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke ola lōʻihi o nā rattlesnakes ʻulaʻula i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia i ka pio - 19 mau makahiki a me 2 mau mahina.
ʻO ke ʻano o ka ʻāhiu ʻulaʻula.
Hōʻalo nā ʻiole ʻulaʻula i ka wela nui a lilo i mea hana i nā wā hōʻoluʻolu. No lākou ka pō mai ka hopena o ka lau a me ke kauwela.
ʻO kēia mau holoholona hihi ke hibernate pinepine mai ʻOkakopa a Nowemapa a Pepeluali a Malaki paha.
ʻAʻau ʻia nā ʻāhi ʻāhi ʻula i nā loko wai hou, nā waihona wai a hiki i ka Moana Pākīpika, i kekahi mau manawa ka poʻe lawaiʻa makaʻu. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole ʻauʻau lākou i ka wai me ka makemake ʻole, akā holoi wale ʻia e ka ua ikaika i loko o ka muliwai. Hiki i kēia mau moʻo ke piʻi i nā ululāʻau haʻahaʻa, cacti a me nā kumulāʻau, kahi e loaʻa ai nā mea pio i nā lāʻau, a hoʻouka i nā manu a me nā mea hānai liʻiliʻi.
Hoʻonohonoho nā kāne i nā "hulahula" maʻamau, a lilo i hoʻokūkū ma waena o ʻelua nahesa i ka wā hānau. I kēia hihia, hāpai nā nāhelehe i ke kino i luna a wili pū kekahi me kekahi. Lanakila ke kāne i kui pono i ke kāne nāwaliwali i ka honua.
I ka mua, kuhi hewa ʻia kēia mau neʻe no kahi moʻomeheu moena, akā ua ʻike ʻia pēlā ka hoʻokūkū ʻana o nā kāne e ʻike i ka mea ʻoi loa. He nahesa mālie nā nāhesa ʻulaʻula a ʻano hakakā ʻole. Ke hoʻokokoke aku iā lākou, noho mālie lākou a hūnā paha i ko lākou poʻo. Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻoe e hoʻonāukiuki i kahi hoʻouka kaua i ka nahesa a kipaku paha iā ia i kahi kihi, a laila lawe ia i kahi kūlana pale, ʻōwili ʻana, a me nā lū.
ʻO ka nui o ka ʻāina i koi ʻia no ka ʻimi holoholona ʻokoʻa e like me ka kau.
I ke kau mahana, ke ʻoi aku ka hana a nā moʻo, pono i kekahi kanaka i ka 0.3 a i ka 6.2 tausani hectares e noho ai. I ka hoʻoilo, hoʻemi nui ʻia ka pūnaewele i 100 - 2600 mau mika kūlike. Nui nā wahi āpau o nā kāne i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā wahine, a ʻo nā nahesa wao nahele i pālahalaha ʻia ma luna o nā pae ʻoi aku ka nui ma mua o nā nāhesa kahakai. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa nā ʻīlio ʻulaʻula i ko lākou poʻe ʻenemi me nā lūlū nui ma ko lākou huelo. E hana ai i kēia, hoʻohana lākou i nā mākala kūikawā hiki ke kaʻapuni i nā kuʻina 50 no kēlā me kēia kekona no ʻekolu mau hola. ʻAʻole hoʻohana ʻia ka rattle no nā hana pale.
I ka pane ʻana i nā ʻōlelo hoʻoweliweli, hiki i nā ʻanake ʻulaʻula ke pehu a he hoʻi no kahi manawa lōʻihi. Hoʻomaopopo lākou i nā pio a me nā hoa e hiki ai i nā ʻōnohi ʻike, wela a me nā ʻaʻala.
ʻAiʻai ʻiole ʻulaʻula.
He poʻe hoʻohālua nā holoholona ʻāhi ʻulaʻula a huli i ke ao a me ka pō. ʻIke ʻia ka Prey me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā hōʻailona kemika a me nā thermo-visual. I ka wā o ka ʻimi holoholona, noho mau nā nahesa a neʻe ʻole, ke kokoke mai ka mea pio, waiho wale ia e hopu a hoʻomake i ka lāʻau make. ʻAi nā moʻo ʻulaʻula, nāʻiole, voles, mice, lāpaki, ʻūlū lepo, moʻo. ʻAʻohe ʻai pinepine ʻia nā manu a me ke kino.
He manaʻo no ke kanaka.
Mālama nā ʻiole ʻulaʻula i nā heluna o nā mammal liʻiliʻi e luku i nā mea kanu mahiʻai a hoʻolaha i nā maʻi. Manaʻo ʻia kēia ʻano moʻo o ka nāhesa he ʻoi aku ka hakakā a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka mea ʻawahia ma mua o ka nui o nā rattlenakes ʻAmelika. Eia naʻe, hiki i nā nahu ke weliweli loa.
Loaʻa ka lāʻau ʻino i kahi hopena proteolytic, a me kahi lāʻau o 100 mg o ka lāʻau make he mea make ia i kānaka.
ʻO nā ʻōuli o ka nahu ʻana i nā ʻāhi ʻulaʻula e ke kū ʻana o ka edema, ka hoʻoliʻiliʻi o ka ʻili, ke ʻano hemorrhagic, kahe, ka luaʻi, kahe koko, hemolysis a me ka nekrosis. ʻO ka onaona o nā moʻo makua he 6 a 15 mau manawa ka ikaika ma mua o ka ona o nā nahesa ʻōpio. Ma Kaleponi Hema, 5.9% o ka poʻe i nahu ʻia i launa me ka ʻāʻā hue ʻulaʻula. Mālama ʻia ka mālama lapaʻau manawa kūpono i ka make.
ʻO ke kūlana mālama o ka rattlesnake ʻulaʻula.
Ke emi nei ka helu o ka rattlesnake ʻulaʻula ma Kaleponi, ʻo ka hoʻoweliweli nui ka hoʻopau ʻia ʻana o nā nahesa e noho ana ma nā kahakai a me nā kaona. Ma kahi o iwakālua pākēneka o ka pae mōʻaukala i nalowale ma muli o ka hoʻomohala ʻenehana o nā panalāʻau. Ke emi nei ka heluna kanaka i ka nui o ka hopena o ka make o nā moʻo ma nā alanui, nā ahi, ka nalowale o nā mea kanu a pili i ka loli honua. Ua helu ʻia ka ʻāʻī rattlesnake e ka IUCN ma ke ʻano he ʻano hopohopo liʻiliʻi.
