I-Cacapo luhlobo lwe-New Zealand parrots. Ihlukile ngoba ayikashintshi kakhulu kusukela ezikhathini zangaphambi kokuzalwa futhi iyisikhathi samadayinaso: ukhokho nokhokho wohlobo lwakwaNestor babehlukaniswe kwezinye izinhlobo zephalishi eminyakeni eyizigidi ezingama-82 edlule ngenkathi iNew Zealand ihlukana noGondwana. AmaKakapo, noma kunjalo, ahlukane nezinhlobo ezingezona zama-estoric njengaseminyakeni eyizigidi ezingama-70 edlule. Kuyanezela futhi kobunye bayo ukuthi le nhlobo ayazi ukuthi ingandiza kanjani, ihola indlela yokuphila yobusuku, futhi yidlanzana elikhulu kunawo wonke (elinesisindo esingu-2 kg kg).

I-plumage i-yellow-green enamachashazi amnyama, ine-disc ebonakalayo ebucayi, izimpaphe ze-vibrissiform (amadevu), umlomo omkhulu ompunga, imilenze emifushane, izinyawo ezinkulu namaphiko amancane, nomsila omfushane. UKakapo waphelelwa amandla okundiza ngenkuthalo, esebenzisa amaphiko ukulinganisa noma ukuhlela ukusuka kwesinye isihlahla kuye kwesinye, noma ukuthambisa ukushaya ngesikhathi sokuwa nokugxuma. Kwabesilisa nabesifazane, i-dimorphism yezocansi ngosayizi womzimba iyabonakala. Ukukhuliswa kwezilwane ezincane kuyaqhubeka ngaphandle kokungenelela kwabesilisa. IKakapo ukuphela kwezinhlobo zopholi ezinesistimu yokuzalanisa i-polygynous.

I-plumage ye-cacapo iyiphindaphinda ngokuphelele imibala yesimo, ivumela amapharothi ukuba "alungele" ngemuva. AmaKakapo anephunga elimnandi, elimnandi.

Ngenxa yendlela yabo yokuphila yobusuku obujwayelekile futhi kufana kakhulu nezikhova, zibizwa nangokuthi izikhova. Le nyoni igqamile, inamaphesenti amaningi amanoni omzimba, yize igibela izihlahla ezinhle nezindawo ezinamadwala zaseNew Zealand, futhi ayigxili kabi, kepha ikakhulukazi iyagijima.

Ukungasabi abantu, abanomusa kakhulu, abanye ngokwemvelo babaqhathanisa nesidlwane. Curious. Ososayensi bagcizelela iqiniso lokuthi i-kakapo ngayinye inomlingiswa ohlonishwayo.

Yize zibizwa ngokuthi izikhova, zilandela ukudla okwenziwe ngemifino, zikhetha amajikijolo, imbewu namahlamvu.

Basinda kanjani kuze kube namuhla?

IKakapo yisidlakudla esivelakancane emhlabeni. Babenenhlanhla encane ukwedlula iDodo elidume (iqembu lamajuba) elivela e-Australia. Njengoba wazi, ama-Dodos nawo ayondlekile futhi engazi ukuthi angandiza kanjani, ngoba sasingekho isidingo: zazingekho izilwane eziyizidalwa ezihlaselayo ezincelisayo kulesi siqhingi. Kwehlela ikusasa elibi lapho kufika ama-colonization, ngenkathi kulethwa izilwane ezizingela ezwenikazi. UKakapo futhi wayengenazitha zemvelo. Izinyamazane eziwukuphela kwezilwane ezincelisayo ziyizinhlobo ezintathu zamalulwane. Izilwane ezihuquzelayo bezingabi yingozi ikakhulukazi kumaphara. Ngalesi sizathu esilula, uKakapo akafundanga ukuvikela noma ukuhlasela, futhi nangaphezu kwalokho - abalekele izitha. Lokhu kwenze ukuthi upholi ube sengozini lapho izilwane ezingezona ezeNew Zealand zivela kwamanye amazwe zivela.

UKakapo wahlupheka ngemuva kokufika kwamaPolynesia, kodwa wakwazi ukwelulama, kepha abaseYurophu, abafika ngekhulu le-19 nazo zonke izinto ezisungwayo eBrazil Newland, bakubeka ngokweqiniso i-kakapo ekuqothulweni: ukusuka emakhulwini ezinkulungwane eminyakeni eyi-150 yobukoloniyali, isibalo sehlela emakhulu ezinhlosweni.

AbaseNew Zealand kufanele banikezwe imali yabo ngoba benza konke okusemandleni ukusindisa uhlobo. Kancane kancane bayaphumelela. IKakapo ingesinye sezinyoni ezinde kunazo zonke ezihlala isikhathi eside - ziphila ngokwesilinganiso iminyaka engama-90-95, okuyiningi impela. Lezi zinyoni zihlala eziqhingini ezingenabantu nezilwane ezidla ezinye (i-Codfish, i-Ankor ne-Little Barrier), lapho amavolontiya kanye nochwepheshe abavela emhlanganweni wokutakula bebanakekela. Futhi, umbuso, izinkampani ezizimele kanye nabahlali bayakujabulela ukusiza i-cocoa, futhi namaphasele ngokwawo asephenduke uphawu lwesizwe nokuziqhenya.

Muntu munye kuphela ohlala njalo nabantu - uCirocco, ongazange athathe izimpande endle. Uhambahamba ezweni nezwe, esiza ukuthola ngokubukeka kwakhe.

Kukhona izinketho zokuzithandela. Ukuze ube nguye, ngifuna ukukutshela, kufanele ube yinothi elukhuni! Ukuphatha isikhwama esinesisindo esingamakhilogremu ayi-15 amahora ama-8 emahlathini nasezindaweni zamadwala akuwona neze umsebenzi wama-wimps. Kufanele futhi ube nempilo ehlukile, ukomelela ngokomzimba, konke ukugoma, futhi uhlukaniswe nokuhlala yedwa eNew Zealand! I-shift eyodwa yomsebenzi ihlala amasonto ama-2.

Khumbula bafowethu abancane! Kuyishwa ukuthi okuncane kangaka okwaziwayo nge-cacapo. Tshela umndeni wakho nabangane, bonisa ividiyo. Lezi zinyoni kufanele zaziwe futhi zikhunjulwe, ngoba yithi, thina bantu, esicishe saziqothula lezi zinto ezinhle eziluhlaza. Ngiyabonga ukunakwa!
