Ngalo lonke ixesha sicinga ngeAfrika, yelizwekazi elithathwa njengeCradle of Humanity, imifanekiso yentlango enkulu yaseSahara, ehlala indawo enkulu yommandla, ngokukhawuleza ithi qatha engqondweni, okanye iikati, ezinjengeengonyama, bathabathe zonke iimbombo zomthunzi abazifumanayo.
Ewe, ukucinga ngeAfrika kukucinga ngamaqondo obushushu aphezulu. Ixabiso elidlula kuma-50 degrees celcius phantse yonke imihla. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba besikholelwa ukuba imeko ayinakuba mbi kakhulu ... besiphazama. Utshintsho lwemozulu lwenza umonakalo kwizilwanyana zasendle zaseAfrika, ezinje ngeAfrican Orichteropes.
Kuncinci kakhulu okwaziwayo ngezi zilwanyana, kodwa ukuba asikhawulezisi singaphela siphulukana nazo kwakamsinya kunokuba umntu enokucinga. Kwaye, abemi bala mafutha, ngobuso obuhle, Iya isanda inqaba ngenxa yokuncipha kwemvula kunye nokunqongophala kokutya.
Imbalela ehlasela iNtlango iKalahari, indawo ekuhlalwa kuyo ekuthiwa zii-anteaters, ikwayindawo yezinambuzane ezenza ukutya kwazo: iimbovane kunye neentubi, ezinengxaki yokuziqhelanisa nendawo eshushu ngakumbi. Ngenxa yoko, iiorichteropos ziyanyamalala.
Intlango yeKalahari
Unjingalwazi webhayoloji u-Andrea Fuller uthe izilwanyana zasebusuku zizama ukonga amandla ngokukhangela izinambuzane emini, kodwa iinzame zokuziqhelanisa azibenzeli lukhulu. Kwabathandathu ababekwe esweni unyaka, abahlanu bafunyanwa beswelekile. Ubushushu bomzimba wakhe behle buye kwi-25 degrees celcius, xa kuyinto eqhelekileyo kubo ukuba ngaphantsi nje kwe-37ºC.
Los baphandi Baye bafumanisa ukuba ezinye izilwanyana ezirhubuluzayo, iintaka, kunye nezinye izilwanyana sele ziqalisile ukusebenzisa imingxunya ye-anteater, ukuze ezi ndawo zinendawo ezinoboya ziphele ngelishwa.
