Lokho kungukuthi, isibonelo, noma ngabe ukudla kungakanani esitsheni, futhi noma ngabe ukukhanya kwasebusuku kusala ngenkani kangakanani kusihlwa, i-hedgehog enamabhande amhlophe isazoqhubeka nokuzingela ngemuva kokushona kwelanga. Lokhu kufanele kubhekelwe, ngoba noma ngabe isilwane esinjalo sivalelwe ekhejini ebusuku, "sizolwa" ngezinduku kuze kuse futhi sisenze umsindo omkhulu.
Umuntu waseNingizimu Afrika akasoze adlala nezingane, ngaphezu kwalokho, ngokunaka kakhulu ingane, bayakwazi ukuyiluma. Njengoba nje lokhu kuhlukahluka kubekezelela imindeni emikhulu enomsindo, kulawo mafulethi i-hedgehog izobheka ukuthi icashe kuphi, yenqabe ukudla futhi, ngokuvamile, ngeke ilethe injabulo kubanikazi bayo, kodwa ukudumazeka okuphelele. Kepha kumuntu onesizungu, lolu hlobo yinkampani ehamba phambili, uhlala elala, ehlala endaweni eyodwa, uthanda ukudla futhi awenzi msindo.
Okuqukethwe yi-hedgehog yase-Afrika yezinhlobo zase-Algeria akuhlukile neze kokuqukethwe yikati, lapho lezi zilwane zifana nobuntu bazo. Isibonelo, i-hedgehog enjalo, ingakhetha kahle imilenze yenkosi ukulala kwayo noma ilale eceleni kwayo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuguqulwa kobusuku nemini akubalulekanga neze kulezi zinhlobo, zijwayela kalula kunoma iyiphi indlela yokuphila nokudla, ngaphandle kokuzihlukanisa namaseli.
AbaseSomaliya bafana kakhulu ekuziphatheni nasezimilweni zabo nezingulube zeginea. Kepha, njengama-hedgehogs amaningi, abathandi ukuvalelwa. Lolu hlobo ngeke luze lulele emqamelweni oseduze, kepha futhi ngeke luzingele nasebusuku.
Kodwa-ke, ngokuqinisekile izohamba izungeze yonke "impahla" izikhathi eziningana ngosuku, ikhamise futhi inyathele. AmaSomalia yiwona kuphela "ama-Afrika". Ngubani ozokwenza ngenkani ukudla kokudla "endlini" yakhe, ngakho-ke, ngaphambi kokondla isilwane, ukuthola isitsha esingenalutho. Kuyadingeka ukuthi uhlole lapho ingxenye yangaphambilini yokudla ithuthele khona - eya esiswini noma "egumbini lokulala".
Izinhlobo zemifino zinomlingiswa othobekile futhi olula kunabo bonke, ingahlala emini ehokweni, ngenkathi bonke abantu besemsebenzini, empeleni, ulele nje lawa mahora.
Kodwa-ke, kusihlwa i-hedgehog iphenduka "umlingani" futhi kuyadingeka ukuthi "uyikhulule", uyicoshe, uyidlale, ayihlikihle isisu sayo ngebhulashi, njalo njalo. Akufanele usiphoqe isilwane esibayeni, i-hedgehog izobuyela lapho ekuseni, into esemqoka ukuthi unethuba lokufinyelela "ekhaya" lakhe.
Zonke izinhlobo zalezi zilwanyane azidingi "umndeni" wezinhlobo zazo, kepha zingaphila ngababili, lapho kukhona indawo yezindiza evulekile noma izimo zezwe ezivulekile.
Abesifazane base-Afrika bahlala njalo bakhulu kunabesilisa ngo-1-2 cm futhi banzima ngama-70-100 amagremu. Ngaphandle, imibala yabesifazane ayiphansi neze kunemibala yabesilisa, futhi ubulili abuthinti uhlobo lwesilwane nganoma iyiphi indlela.
Ukudla okunomsoco
Umbuzo, ungayondla kanjani i-hedgehog yase-Afrika, ivame ukuqhuma lapho i-hedgehog uqobo isivele ifikile ekhaya layo elisha. Empeleni, lezi zilwane zithanda ngokuphelele. Ngenjabulo bazodla isikhwama sokudla kwenja eyomile bese behudulela ama-cracker "amnandi" endlini yabo, baqede ukudla kwekati okusemathinini okusele esitsheni, badle amabhisikidi asetafuleni futhi, ngokuvamile, bazokwenza sengathi bancibilikisa inhlanzi kusinki noma ukupholisa kwenkukhu kuhhavini.
I-hedgehog izodla noma yini enikezwa yona, kusuka ku-pickle kuya kumabhisikidi, kepha le ndlela ayemukelekile ngenxa yokuthi lezi zilwane zithambekele kakhulu ekudleni ngokweqile nokukhuluphala. Ukudla kwesilwane kufanele kulinganiswe, qiniseka ukufaka imifino nezithelo ezintsha ezingavuthiwe, kepha futhi kunamaprotheni ezilwane.
Kanye ngosuku, i-hedgehog idinga ucezu lwenkukhu eluhlaza noma inyama, kunjalo, ungakhohlwa ngobisi nokhilimu omuncu, othandwa kakhulu yilezi zilwane; okungenani kathathu ngesonto, imikhiqizo yobisi kufanele ibe khona ekudleni kwesilwane. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kulula ukwengeza izithasiselo zamafutha kavithamini obisini noma ukhilimu omuncu, isibonelo, i- "A", "D" ne- "E", edingekayo empilweni nokubukeka okuhle.
Ama-hedgehogs amancane kufanele adle amahlandla ayisithupha kuya kwangu-8 ezingxenyeni ezincane, kanti isilwane esikhulile singahle sikhawulelwe ekudleni kabili ngosuku. Kodwa-ke, empeleni, ukondleka kwama-hedgehogs efulethini noma endlini akunakho ukuhlukaniswa, futhi kukhumbuza kakhulu ukondleka kwamakati, okungukuthi, lapho ebuza, uma kunjalo, isilwane asigcinwa endaweni ebiyelwe yodwa.

Ama-Hedgehogs akhula eneminyaka yobudala, kepha awanciki nakancane kokudla okunempilo nezinye izici zokuphila ezivela kubazali babo esevele enezinyanga ezi-4-5, kuyisiko ukuthengisa ama-hedgehogs eneminyaka eyisithupha.
Uma ufuna ukuzala lezi zilwane ezifuywayo, udinga ukukhetha hhayi imibala ehehayo kuphela ye-hedgehog yase-Afrika yokuwela, kodwa futhi ne-aviary evulekile lapho izilwane ezimbili ezizimele zizwana khona ngesikhathi lapho zingazaleli khona uhlobo lwazo, okungukuthi, enkulu endaweni i-aviary enemininingwane "ehlanzekile". Lezi zilwane zihlala emvelweni iminyaka emithathu kuya kwemine, ekuthunjweni iminyaka eyi-10 noma ngaphezulu.
