UBret Easton Ellis uthe: “Umhlaba yihlathi. Nomaphi lapho uya khona, kuyefana kuyo yonke indawo ”. Umbhali waseMelika wayengaqondile ngezilwane. Zihlukile ezindaweni ezihlukene.
Ngenkathi abantu, besizakala ngezinzuzo zokuhwebelana kwembulunga yonke, ukuxubana, izinhlobo zezilwane eziphila emhlabeni nasemanzini, izilwane ezincelisayo, izinyoni, kunalokho, zigxilwe emigodini emincane yemvelo. Ngakho-ke, ehlathini lase-Ecuador, kwatholakala umlomo omncane ongaguquguquki.
Le frog encane iyakwazi ukuguqula ukuthungwa kwesikhumba. I-amphibian ngokushesha iba ne-spiny kusuka bushelelezi futhi iqhubu kusuka ku-spiny. Ngaphandle kwezindawo ezishisayo zase-Ecuador, i-choppy narrow-loop ayenzeki. Kukhona izifiso ezifanayo kwamanye amahlathi eplanethi. Ake sijwayelane nezilwane, ukuze ukwazi ukuya emaphethelweni omhlaba.
Esithombeni, isilwane sincane
I-tapir enesipele esimnyama
Ehlathini elishisayo, okungukuthi, izihlahlana zemithi "zigcwala" ngotshani obunesiqu esibucayi, i-tapir enesiphetho esimnyama ihlala eduze nemizimba yamanzi. Isilwane siyakwazi ukuhamba ngezansi kwaso.
I-tapir iyahamba, ibambe umoya. Okubonakala kuyikhala yindebe ephezulu enwetshiwe. Waphenduka uhlobo lomboko. Kulula kubo ukukha izitshalo zasemanzini kanye namahlumela eduze nemizimba yamanzi.
Ama-tapir amnyama amnyama - izilwane zasendle ngemilenze emifushane nentamo, squat nomzimba okhuluphele. Izilwane nazo aziboni. Akumangazi ukulahlekelwa umbono ngezikhathi eziningi zomhlaba.
Ama-tapir abhekwa njengama-dinosaurs asehlathini, esinye sezilwane zasendulo kakhulu. Cishe ngaphandle kokubona, ziqondiswa iphunga. I-tapir enesipele esimnyama inomqondo omuhle kakhulu wephunga.
Okufanekisiwe kuyi-tapir yesilwane
Ingono
Le nyani ivame kakhulu esiqhingini saseBorneo. Njengezinye izilwane ezidla imfuyo ehlathini, isidleke sichitha isikhathi saso esihlahleni. Isikhwishikhwishi emahlathini asezindaweni ezishisayo sincane.
Isisekelo salo somsoco alanele kuwo wonke umuntu odla uhlaza nezithelo. Ngakho-ke, izinambuzane nezilwane ezidla ezinye zigxila ehlathini elingaphansi. Abanye bacasha phezulu, lapho kuphephe khona futhi kwanelisa.
Ezinhlotsheni ezihlukile ngokuhleleka kwama-macaque, i-nosy ihlukaniswa ngenxa yesitho sokulungisa esiguquliwe. Kwabesilisa, iyavuvukala, ilenga okwebhola lamanzi. Kwabesifazane abanomqondo, isakhiwo sihlukile. Impumulo yabesifazane nayo ivulekile, kepha ivuliwe.
Phakathi kwezinkawu, amakhala ayabonakala, futhi, ngekhono lokuhamba ngemilenze emibili. Imvamisa, lokhu kwenziwa ngezinkawu ezinjenge-humanoid ngenhlangano ephakeme yempilo yomphakathi emiphakathini yazo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, kunamapharamitha lapho izilwane zasendle amakhala angaphansi kwezinkawu. Umsila omude wempumulo, ngokwesibonelo, ulahlekelwe ukuguquguquka kwawo, cishe awukaze usetshenziswe njengokubamba lapho ugxuma phakathi kwezihlahla namagatsha.

I-Tewangu (lori encane)
Lezi izilwane zasendle zehlathi kungokwama-lemurs. Izilwane zihlala emahlathini aseNdiya naseSri Lanka. Empeleni lapha uTewanga wayebizwa kanjalo. Ngaphandle kwendawo esihlala kuyo, lesi silwane sibizwa ngokuthi i-loris ezacile. Izilwane zizacile futhi zinomusa ngempela. Amakhala amancanyana nakhombayo anikeza ubuso bama-lemurs ukubukeka okunelukuluku, nobuqili.
ULori unamehlo amakhulu, ayindilinga. Baphelelisa ubuqili ngokumangala. Kubukeka sengathi isilwane ngobuqili sibuza: - "Ngikwenzile lokhu?" Emisebenzini ejwayelekile yeTewangu, siphawula ukumakwa ngomchamo wensimu yabo, ukuhlanza uboya ngozipho oluvulelekile nokudla izithelo.
Ekhuluma nge-lori ezacile, imininingwane idinga ukwengezwa mayelana nehlathi. Izilwane lapha, ikakhulukazi ebusuku. Ukushisa kuyakhathaza emini, ngaphandle kwalokho, ukukhanya kuthuthukisa ukubonakala. Umgomo wezilwane eziningi zasehlathini ukufihla ezilwaneni ezidla ezinye. Ngakho-ke, abakwaTewanga bayaphuma bayodla izithelo namahlamvu ngemuva kokushona kwelanga. Emini, ama-lemurs alala.

Izinhlwathi zeBongo
Inhlwathi yasehlathini. Ikama elihehayo le-dorsal elenziwe ngoboya. Ifana ne-fish fin noma i-mohawk. Phakathi kwamanye ama-antelopes asehlathini, i-bongo iyona enkulu kunazo zonke, ifinyelela ngamasentimitha angama-235 ubude no-130 ukuphakama. Abantu abakhulu kunabo bonke bahlala eKenya. Bongo, ngokuvamile, wase-Afrika isilwane sehlathi.
Isithombe I-antelope imele ama-ungulates anemihlane e-arched, umbala onsundu ngokubomvu onemivimbo ephuzi emhlophe ephuzi. Izimpondo zikhona kuzo zonke izithombe. Zigqokwa ama-bongos ngabo bobabili abesilisa nabesifazane. Amathambo aphuma emathanjeni afana nehabhu elimile, lisontekile laba yinsimbi.
Izimpondo zamaBongo zifinyelela kubude bemitha elingu-1. Kwabesifazane, njengomthetho, ukukhula kungadluli amasentimitha angama-70. Futhi unganquma ubulili be-antelope ngendlela yayo yokuphila. Abesifazane abanenzalo baduka babe ngamaqembu. Abesilisa baphila ngokuzihlukanisa okuhle kakhulu.
Yize ama-bongs abesifazane enezimpondo ezimfushane, ayadingeka ukubusa ngamaqembu. Umuntu onemikhono emide kakhulu uba ngumholi womhlambi. Kuvela ukuthi ama-bongo asafuna izici zesilisa kumholi.

Ingwe yaseBengal
Izinhlobo zihlala eNdiya ihlathi. Umhlaba wezilwane amahlathi endawo anezelwa amahlosi aseBengal angama-2 000 kuphela. Cishe abanye abangama-500 bahlala eBangladesh. Inani eliphelele lalezi zinhlobo ngamakati angama-3 500.
Lesi bekuyisizathu sokufakwa kwengwe yaseBengal ku "Red Book". Cishe abantu abayinkulungwane bahlala ema-zoo. Ezinye zezilwane ezithunjiwe ngama-albino.
Amahlosi amaNdiya ahlukile kwamanye amahlosi hhayi ngokubukeka kuphela, kodwa nangokuziphatha. Masikhumbule, isibonelo, amakati e-Amur. Lezi zinsuku zizingela buthule. Amahlosi aseBengal aphumela ku- "warpath" ngokubhonga okusabekayo. Ngezinye izikhathi, kubhekiswe kubantu. Kwabhalwa amacala okuhlaselwa kwabo. Awekho amazimuzimu phakathi kwabantu base-Amur.
Ingwe yaseBengal incane kancane kunesihlobo sayo saseRussia futhi ikhanya ngombala. Ngaphezu kwalokho, izidumbu zaseNdiya zinamajazi amafushane. Kodwa-ke, ngeso elingenalwazi, kunzima ukuhlukanisa ihlosi le-Bengal kwabanye.
Ingwe yaseBengal
Kuliqiniso, kunezibonelo ezingabonakali njengehlosi. Ngakho-ke, ekupheleni kwekhulu le-19, umuntu onoboya obumnyama wadutshulwa. Izilwane eziningi ezimnyama eNdiya naseBangladesh azikabonwa. Kodwa amahlosi amhlophe akhuliswe ngokukhethekile ekuthunjweni. Kunesidingo sama-albino, amasekisi nama-zoo akhokhela kakhulu.
Bull gaur
Uyaye akhohlakale uma bethi yiziphi izilwane ezihlala ehlathini... Khonamanjalo, i-gaur iyinkunzi enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni. Abantu abambalwa balahlekile ehlathini. Kuyo yonke iChina, ngokwesibonelo, kwabalwa ama-gaura angama-800 kuphela. Kancane kakhulu eNdiya. AbaseVietnam nabakwaThais nabo bayaziqhenya ngama-gauras.
Ngokude, izinkunzi zezinhlobo zingaphezu kwamamitha amathathu. Ukuphakama kwama-ungulates kungaphezu kwamamitha ama-2. Isisindo sezilwane sidlula ithani. Imvamisa kuba ngamakhilogremu ayi-1,300. Izimpondo nazo zenza igauru ibukeke isongela. Zime ngocezwana, u-90-100 cm.
Inani elincane lezinkunzi ze-gauru lihlotshaniswa nezici zokuzalisa. Abesifazane bazala ithole elilodwa kuphela. Ebisini likamama, ugcina unyaka, futhi ufinyelela ekuvuthweni ngokocansi kuphela eneminyaka engu-3.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, inkunzi enesisindo esifinyelela ku-1 ton ingabulawa yingwe, ikakhulukazi iqembu lamakati. Uma, noma kunjalo, i-gauru ikwazi ukubaleka engozini futhi ikhule ibe ngosayizi ongaphepheki, i-ungulate iphila cishe iminyaka engama-30.

Inkawu yokhozi
Ukhozi olukhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni. Le nyoni ihlala ikakhulukazi emahlathini asePhilippines. Ukhozi alunabancintisi kuzo. Inyoni izizwa ikhululekile, ishwibeka ize ifike kwimitha. Amaphiko wesilwane esidlayo angamamitha amabili. Isisindo sesilwane asidluli amakhilogremu ayi-7. Kunzima kakhulu ukuphakamisela esibhakabhakeni.
Izinkozi zasePhilippines zizingela, njengoba igama lisho, izinkawu. Kwibhangqa elilodwa nenkukhu, indawo engamakhilomitha-skwele angama-30-40 iyadingeka. Ubunikazi obuncane benza ukuthi izinyoni zilambe.
Njengoba ihlathi leplanethi lincipha ngokushesha, amahabhu adla izinkawu asongelwa ngokuqothulwa. Sekusungulwe indawo yokugcina ukhozi esiqhingini saseKabuaya. Indawo yendawo yokuphepha ingamahektha angama-7,000.

IMadagascar sucker
Kusuka egameni kuyacaca ukuthi lesi silwane sihlala eMadagascar kuphela. Isiqhingi esigcwele indawo sinama-suckers ezinqeni zayo. Amanye amalulwane anezinye ezifanayo, lapho imilenze yomunce ibukeka ngayo.
Kodwa-ke, endalweni, amaswidi anamathele ngqo esikhunjeni. Amanye amagundane anezikhonkwane zezinwele zesikhashana. Izinkomishi zokudonsa zimanziswa nge-adhesive. Ikhiqizwa yizindlala ezikhethekile emzimbeni wendawo.
Ososayensi abakwazi ukuqonda i-etymology yemvelaphi yalolu hlobo. Amaswidi, ngokuvamile, awafundwa kahle. Kucatshangwa ukuthi izilwane zinamathiselwe ngezidladla zazo emaqabungeni esikhumba semithi yesundu. Lapho zihlanganiswa, ziyizindawo zokucasha ezinhle. Bheka amaswidi abo eduze kwamanzi. Isilwane asibonwanga kude nezidumbu zamanzi.
Imilenze yokudonsa incane. Isilwane singamasentimitha angu-4,5-5.7 ubude. Isilwane sinesisindo esingama-gramu ayi-10. Cishe ezi-2 zazo zisezindlebeni. Mikhulu kunekhanda lesimunyu, futhi zihamba ze. Ayimboziwe ngezinwele nezinwele ezinamaphiko ezinesikhumba emilenzeni yangaphambili. Umzimba osele use "jazini" elinsundu, eliminyene.
