Incazelo nezici ze-aardvark
Isakhiwo sokuqala somzimba wesilwane, sisuka kwimitha kuya kulilodwa nengxenye ubude, sifana nepayipi likathayela elijiyile, phambi kwalo kunekhanda elibukeka njengesifihla-moya segesi esinempumulo yengulube.
Izindlebe, ezinkulu ngokungenakuqhathaniswa ekhanda, kufika ku-20 cm, zibukeka njengezindlebe zezimbongolo noma zonogwaja. Umsila omude wemisipha, ofika ku-50 cm, njenge-kangaroo. Izinyawo, zimfushane futhi ziqinile, zinamazipho aminyene kakhulu ezinzwaneni ezinamanzi afana nezinselo.
Jikelele isisindo somuntu omdala i-aardvark ifinyelela cishe ku-60-70 kg. Isifonyo, sokwakheka okulingene ne-proboscis, sifana ne-anteater, kepha lokhu kufana ngengozi ngokuphelele, ngoba akusizihlobo. Ama-aardvark anesikhumba esikhulu se-cartilaginous, njengezingulube, namehlo anomusa kakhulu.
Isikhumba esishwabene esibi simbozwe yizinwele ezimbalwa zombala ongcolile - mpunga-nsundu-ophuzi. Abesifazane banezinwele ezimhlophe ekugcineni komsila. Lesi sicaka sokukhanya sisebenza njengesibani samazinyane agijima ebumnyameni ngemuva komhlengikazi.
Lesi silwane sathola igama laso ngenxa yesimo esingajwayelekile samazinyo angama-20, afana namashubhu aqondile ngaphandle koqweqwe lwawo nezimpande, futhi sikhula ngokuqhubekayo kukho konke ukuphila kwaso.

Indawo yase-Aardvark
Imvelaphi ye-aardvark iminyene, ayikacaci, okhokho bayo baphila cishe eminyakeni eyizigidi ezingama-20 edlule. Izinsalela zama-aardvark zitholakale eKenya, mhlawumbe leli yizwe labo.
Namuhla, isilwane singatholakala emvelweni kuphela ezifundeni ezithile zaseCentral naseNingizimu Afrika. Bahlala ezindaweni ezingama-savanna, njengamahlathi anezihlahlana, abahlali emaxhaphozini nakumahlathi asenkabazwe anomswakama.
Abatholakali nhlobo ezindaweni ezinenhlabathi enamadwala, badinga ezikhululekile, ngoba indawo yabo enkulu ukumba izimbobo. Laba bemba abanakulingana! Emizuzwini emithathu kuya kwemihlanu, umgodi, ukujula kwemitha, uzombiwa kalula.
Ubude obujwayelekile bezindawo zabo zokukhosela bufinyelela kumamitha ama-3, kanti isidleke esisodwa - esingafika kumamitha ayi-13, sihlangana nokuphuma okuningana futhi siphela ngendawo evulekile lapho insikazi igcinwe khona namazinyane.
Indawo yokungena imbozwe amagatsha noma utshani. Kepha imigoqo ivame ukuvela ngenxa yengozi eye yavela, lapho indawo yokukhosela idingeka ngokushesha. Izilwane azinamatheli ezindlini ezinjalo, ziyishiya kalula futhi, uma kunesidingo, zithathe ezikhululekile.
Imigodi eselungile esishiyiwe ye-aardvark ihlala izingulube, izimpungushe, izingungumbane, ama-mongoose nezinye izilwane. Imigodi ilimaza umhlaba wezolimo, ngakho-ke izilwane ziyaqothulwa, ngaphezu kwalokho, inyama yazo ifana nengulube. Inani lezilwane liyancipha, kepha kuze kube manje lolu hlobo alukho ohlwini lweRed Book.
Ukudla
Inzuzo engangabazeki isilwane aardvark kuletha izilimo, kuqeda umuhlwa odla ukudla. Akunzima kuye ukuvula indunduma yomuhlwa noma intuthane, ngoba izintuthwane kuye ziyisibiliboco esinamathela ngokoqobo olimini olude, oluzacile nolunamathelayo. Ukulunywa yizintuthwane akukubi neze nge-aardvark enesikhumba esijiyile. Angaze alale ngenkathi edla maphakathi nendlwana.
Ukudla kwayo okujwayelekile kwansuku zonke emvelweni kufinyelela ezinambuzaneni ezingama-50 000. Umuhlwa uncanyelwa esimeni selitulu, netintfutfwane esimeni lesomile. Ngaphezu kwazo, ingadla izibungu zesikhonyane, amabhungane, kwesinye isikhathi idla amakhowe kanye namajikijolo, futhi esimweni sezulu esomile sikhipha izithelo ezinamanzi. Kuma-zoo, i-African aardvark idla amaqanda, ubisi, ayinqabi okusanhlamvu okunamavithamini namaminerali nenyama.
Uhlobo lwe-aardvark
Izingulube zobumba zinamahloni kakhulu futhi ziyaqapha, naphezu kokubukeka kwazo okwesabekayo nosayizi omkhulu. Konke abangakwenza lapho behlasela izitha ukugquma nokulwa ngezidladla nangomsila, belele ngomhlane, noma bagijimele endaweni yabo yokuhlala.
Ama-aardvark awazesabi izilwane ezincane, kepha acasha ngezimbungulu, amabhubesi, izinja zempisi, izingulule futhi, ngeshwa, abantu, bagqekeza ngokushesha emhlabathini. Abadli bezilwane bavamise ukubamba intshisekelo yezinsizwa ezingakatholi isikhathi sokufunda "izifundo" zokuphepha empilweni.
Ngesikhathi sasemini, izilwane ezihamba kancane nezixakile azenzi lutho: zihlala elangeni noma zilale emigodini. Umsebenzi omkhulu uvuka ngemuva kokushona kwelanga, ebusuku. Ngenxa yokuzwa kwabo okuhle kakhulu nomuzwa wokuhogela, bayahamba bayofuna ukudla amashumi amakhilomitha amaningi futhi bathole ukudla.
Ngasikhathi sinye, impumulo yabo ihogela njalo ihlole umhlaba. Ngokungafani nezinye izilwane ezincelisayo, umnyango wezilwane wesilwane ugcwele yonke indawo ekucwaswa kwawo. Amehlo ezilwane abuthakathaka, awahlukanisi imibala.
Bahlala bodwa, kepha lapho kunokudla okuningi khona, indawo yabo imbiwa ngemigodi enemigudu yokuxhumana yokuhlala wonke amakoloni. Insimu yokuhlala kwabantu abaningi icishe ibe ngu-5 sq. Km.
Ukuzala kanye nesikhathi sokuphila
Ukukhiqizwa kabusha kwe-aardvark Kwenzeka ngezikhathi ezahlukahlukene kuye ngendawo yokuhlala, kepha kaningi ngenkathi yemvula i-aardvark yesifazane iletha eyodwa, kwesinye isikhathi amawundlu amabili. Kulo mcimbi, kumbiwa indawo ekhethekile yokwakha izidleke emgodini otweni. Inzalo ichanyuselwa ezinyangeni eziyi-7.
Lapho zizalwa, izingane zinesisindo esingaba ngu-2 kg futhi zifinyelela osayizi obufinyelela kuma-cm 55. Uzipho kuzinsana ezisanda kuzalwa seluvele lwakhula. Cishe amasonto amabili, iwundlu elisanda kuzalwa kanye nensikazi alishiyi umgodi. Ngemuva kokubonakala kokuqala, ingane ifunda ukulandela umama, noma kunalokho, ichopho elimhlophe lomsila, eliqondisa ithole nge-beacon.
Kuze kube amasonto ayi-16 ingane aardvark udla ubisi lukamama, kepha kancane kancane umfunza ngezintuthwane. Ngemuva kwalokho ukufuna okuzimele kokudla kuqala ebusuku ukondla kanye nomama.
Ezinyangeni eziyisithupha kamuva, ushimula osekhulile uqala ukuzimba imigodi eyedwa, athole ulwazi lokuba mdala, kepha uyaqhubeka nokuhlala nonina kuze kufike isikhathi esilandelayo sokukhulelwa kwakhe.
Inkonyane lihlala emgodini olahliwe noma lizimbele lodwa. Izilwane zivuthwa ngonyaka wokuphila, kanti izilwane ezincane zingazala izingane kusukela eminyakeni emibili ubudala.
Ama-aardvark ahlukile ngokuphila ngababili; banesithembu futhi bahlangana nabantu abahlukile. Isikhathi sokukhwelana senzeka entwasahlobo nasekwindla. Isikhathi sempilo yabo emvelweni cishe siyiminyaka eyi-18-20.
I-Aardvark eZoo Yekaterinburg
Bazama ukuzala ama-aardvark ema-zoo, kodwa kufa inani elikhulu lamawundlu. Ekuthunjweni, basheshe banamathele kubantu, baphenduke ngokuphelele. Ukuthi i-aardvark ibukeka kanjani kungabonakala ema-zoo aseRussia eYekaterinburg naseNizhny Novgorod, lapho kwamukelwa khona izilwane zokuqala ezivela ezinkulisa zase-Afrika.
Ngo-2013, inkonyane yokuqala yakwa-Eka yazalwa eYekaterinburg, eqanjwe ngegama lomuzi. Abasebenzi baseZoo nodokotela bezilwane bakha imvelo imvelo yezilwane, baze bazondla ngesibiliboco abasithandayo, izibungu zokudla, befihla ukudla esiqwini somuthi obolile.
Ngemuva kwakho konke, badinga ukuthola ukudla lapho kumbiwa. Lapho isikhathi sokukhula kwakhe siphela, i-aardvark yathuthela e-Nizhny Novgorod zoo ukuze yakhe umndeni wayo.
Ngithanda ukukholelwa ukuthi lezi zilwane, ezindala kakhulu nezingavamile, zizokwazi ukuphila ezweni lanamuhla. Ukubukeka kwabo okunzima ngeke kubasindise, kepha umuntu angazigcina lezi zilwane ezingenakuzisiza nezinhle zemvelo kwezinye izizukulwane.
