UKwezal endizeni
Ngaphezu kwalokho, abesilisa banesici esihle kakhulu - kusuka emsileni wabo kuphuma izimpaphe zemisila emibili emide kakhulu, okuwumhlobiso wangempela. Futhi, hhayi kuphela izimpaphe zomsila ezihlobisa inyoni yomlingo, kepha futhi nombala ogqamile ngokungavamile. Abesilisa bahle ikakhulukazi, kunjalo.
Umzimba wonke wendoda encane enombala oluhlaza ocebile onombala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, kanti isifuba sipendwe ngombala obomvu klebhu. Izimpiko zinezimpaphe ezimnyama ngombala noluhlaza okotshani okukhanyayo, kanti okwenziwe phansi kumhlophe. Umbala womsila uluhlaza okotshani, ojika ube yimibala eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka. Akunakwenzeka ukuchaza ngamagama umdlalo wemibala yalesi simangaliso esincane.
Esithombeni, inyoni ye-quetzal eyeduna
Abesifazane banesizotha kancane, kepha futhi bagqama ngobuhle babo. Kodwa-ke, azinawo umswakama opholile emakhanda azo, amadoda angaziqhayisa ngawo, futhi azinazo nezimpaphe zemisila ezimbili ezinde.
Kwezali babe nokubukeka okungajwayelekile kangako Izizwe zamaMeya kubhekwe lezi zinyoni engcwele wabakhonza njengonkulunkulu womkhathi. Ngemikhuba yabo, amaNdiya asebenzisa izimpaphe zale nyoni, abamba ngokucophelela umbuzo, adonsa uphaphe adedela inyoni lapho ibanjwe khona.
Akekho obengalokotha abulale le nyoni noma ayilimaze, bekuqonde ukuletha inkathazo embi esizweni sonke. Ngaleso sikhathi, amaKuezals ahlala emahlathini emvula ngamanani amakhulu. Kodwa-ke, izikhathi zashintsha, izizwe zehlulwa, futhi ukuzingela okunjalo kwaqala ngale nyoni emangalisayo ngokushesha okukhulu okwakuseduze nokuqothulwa okuphelele.
Kamuva, abantu babona ukuthi bangalahlekelwa "inganekwane ephilayo", le nyoni ibhalwe kuRed Book, kepha akukwazanga ukubuyisa izinombolo zayo. Inani lezinhlobo liyancipha kuze kube namuhla, manje ngenxa yokuthi amahlathi asezindaweni ezishisayo agawulwa ngonya, lapho uquetzal uhlala.
Yebo, futhi abazingeli abangekho emthethweni abalali, izimpaphe zikanokusho zinophaphe olungenakuzivikela, futhi zikhokhela ubuhle bazo. Akunakwenzeka ukuzalanisa lezi zinyoni - zithanda inkululeko ngokweqile futhi zishabalale ngokushesha ekuthunjweni. Akusizi ngalutho ukuthi iquetzal iwuphawu lwenkululeko eGuatemala.
Isimo nendlela yokuphila yokuezali
I-Quezali ayithandi kakhulu imiphakathi enomsindo. Esikhathini esomile nesishisayo, le nyoni ithanda ukundizela phezulu futhi ibekwe endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha ayizinkulungwane ezintathu ngaphezulu kogu lolwandle. Lapho izimvula ziqala, inyoni ihlala phansi (kuze kufike ku-1000m). Lapho, izinyoni zibheka izihlahla ezinemigodi lapho zingakha khona isidleke.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, umgodi onjalo wesidleke kufanele ube okungenani ama-50 m ukusuka emhlabathini. Ukuthula, nokubekezela kwale nyoni kuyivumela ukuthi ilinde ngaphandle kokunyakaza phakathi kwendawo eluhlaza okwesikhathi eside, ngakho-ke kunzima kakhulu ukuqaphela umbuzo oluhlaza onganyakazi.
Kulula ukumuzwa ecula - edabukile kancane, enamanothi adabukisayo. Kodwa uma isinambuzane sidlula, i-quetzal ngeke ikuphuthe. Inyoni yehlela kalula phansi, ngoba inyamazane, ngokwesibonelo, ixoxo lesihlahla noma isibankwa, nayo ifakiwe ekudleni kombuzo, futhi ingazingela ngisho naphansi.
Insimu yowesilisa oyedwa ibanzi kakhulu - i-quetzal iyinyoni engandile kakhulu ngisho nasendaweni yayo eyinhloko. Kepha indoda ebukekayo, yize inemikhuba ekhuthele, noma kunjalo, ayivumeli abantu engabazi ensimini yayo, ivikela impahla yayo ngentshiseko impela.
Ukudla kwezinyoni zeQuetzal
Ukudla okuyinhloko kwalezi zinyoni izithelo ze-ocotea. Izithelo zigwinywa ziphelele. Emahlathini asezindaweni ezishisayo, lesi sitshalo sikhula ngobuningi, ngakho-ke ukubuza akudingeki ukuthi kuhlupheke indlala. Kodwa-ke, inkinga ukuthi izindawo ezinkulu kakhulu zamahlathi zigawulwa ngenxa yezidingo zezolimo, futhi ukudla kwezinkukhu kuyanyamalala kanye namahlathi.
Yiqiniso, imenyu yombuzo igcwaliswa izinambuzane, ezibanjwa ngumzingeli ohlose kahle, futhi izibankwa ezinamasele zikhanyisa ukudla "kokudla" kwemifino, kepha lokhu akusizi ukugcwalisa ngokuphelele uhlobo lokudla, ngakho-ke, ngokunyamalala kwamahlathi, inyoni nayo iyanyamalala.

Ukuzaliswa kanye nempilo ye-quezali
Lapho kuqala isikhathi sokukhwelana, i-quetzal ebukekayo iqala imidanso yayo yesiko emoyeni, ibaphelezele ngokukhala okukhulu. Kuyiqiniso, lokhu kumemeza akusho nakancane ukuthi owesifazane, othathelwe ubuhle namandla ezwi lakhe, uzoya masinyane “embhedeni womshado,” enezingoma ezinomsindo umnumzane umema le ntokazi ukuba yakhe isidleke.
Ngokubambisana bakhetha indawo, imvamisa kuba yindawo yokwakha isidleke yomunye umuntu, ehlala phansi ngendlela entsha, futhi uma leyo ndawo ingatholakali, indlu yomndeni wesikhathi esizayo yenziwa yizimfuno ngokwazo. Ngemuva kokuthi isidleke sesilungile, insikazi izalela amaqanda ama-2-4. Amaqanda ale nyoni nawo mahle - ahlanzekile ngesimo, anombala ohlaza okwesibhakabhaka ogqamile, ocwebezelayo.
Kokubili insikazi nokweduna ngendlela efanelekile kukhulisa i-clutch izinsuku ezi-18. Ngemuva kwalokho, kuvela amaphuphu anqunu ngokuphelele, angenakuzivikela. Kodwa-ke, zikhula ngokushesha okukhulu futhi zigcwele ngokuphelele ngemuva kwezinsuku ezingama-20. Sonke lesi sikhathi, abazali bondla amaphuphu kuqala ngezinambuzane, bese kuthi kamuva banikeze ukudla okunzima kakhulu - izithelo, iminenke noma izibankwa.
Intsha ayihlali isikhathi eside esidlekeni. Ngemuva kokuthi umzimba wabo umbozwe izimpaphe ezinamandla (ezinsukwini ezingama-20 ngemuva kokuzalwa), bayashiya ngokushesha isidleke sabazali baqale ukuhola izimpilo zabo. Kepha lokhu akusho nakancane ukuthi bangazala inzalo yabo - izinduna ezincane zivuthwa ngokocansi kuphela ngeminyaka emithathu.
Kepha zikhula izimpaphe ezinhle kuphela ngonyaka. Kungaleso sikhathi lapho i-molt ivela khona, ngemuva kwalokho inyoni ithola uphaphe lwayo olunemibala. Lobuhle obumangalisayo buphila kuze kube yiminyaka engama-20. Ukuvimbela le nkathi ekunqunyweni yisandla esinonya noma intambo yesilwane esidala, i-biosphere emangalisayo iziqiwi eMexico neGuatemala.
