Esinye sezilwanyana zasemhlabeni esigqalwa njengesona sibi emhlabeni yi Ewe Ewe. Igama layo lenzululwazi ngu UDaubentonia madagascariensis kwaye ayisiyontle ngokwenkcubeko njengoko inokuba lixhama, indlovu okanye ibhere elimhlophe. Xa sibona esi silwanyana okokuqala singacinga ukuba sisilwanyana esikhulu sepuku, isilwanyana esiyimarsupial sosapho lwe-possum. Nangona kunjalo, oku akunjalo. I-aye-aye yeyona nto inomdla kakhulu ebusuku ebusuku, ngenxa yobukhulu bayo obukhulu kunye namehlo atyheli.
Kule nqaku siza kukuxelela zonke iimpawu, indawo yokuhlala, ukondla kunye nokuzaliswa kwe-aye-aye.
Iimpawu eziphambili
Esi silwanyana sigqamile ngokuba neminwe ethe nkqo, egobileyo kunye nengcakacileyo. Nangona kunjalo, omnye wabo, eOkwesithathu, kubanzi kakhulu kunabanye. Oku kungenxa yokuba bayayisebenzisa le mbono ngobude obukhulu ukuze bakwazi ukukhupha imibungu yezinambuzane apho batya khona kweyona ndawo inzima ukufikelela kwiindawo ezinjengeemingxunya ezinzulu kwizikhuni zomthi. Le minwe mide yenye yeempawu ezahlula esi silwanyana kwamanye amantshontsho kulawulo lwerhafu.
Umphezulu wengubo ungwevu kwaye unomxube omnyama, omdaka nomhlophe. Inomsila ongqindilili kwaye omde. Akukho bungqingili besini phakathi kwendoda nebhinqa, ke kunzima ukwahlula phakathi kwabantu. Enye yezona zinto zinomdla malunga nesi silwanyana kukuba sinamazinyo amakhulu kakhulu kwaye akhula ngokuqhubekayo. Into efana nale idla ngokwenzeka ngemivundla.
Isilwanyana sincinci ngobukhulu ngeesentimitha ezingama-30-70 kuphela ngomsila omalunga neesentimitha ezingama-50 ubude. Banobunzima phakathi kwe-2 kunye ne-3 kilos.
Ukuhanjiswa kunye nendawo yokuhlala ye-aye-aye
Le primate ifunyenwe kunxweme lwaseMadagascar. Kulapho livela khona igama layo lezenzululwazi. Ngokuyintloko, uninzi losasazo lwale ntlobo lusasazwa ngamahlathi kunye nonxweme olusempuma olusempuma mpuma wesiqithi. Ukubona enye yezi zilwanyana kwindawo yazo yendalo kuyinto engaqhelekanga. Sesinye sezizathu zokuba kucingwe ukuba sesinye sezilwanyana ezisengozini yokuphela. Inani labo labantu abavela kubemi bonke bacingelwa ukuba liphantsi ngendlela eyothusayo.
Eyona ndlela yokwazi ubukho be-aye-aye kukwazi ukuqonda amanqaku abawashiya emithini. La manqaku enziwe ngamazinyo abo, nangona engavumeli ukubala okuthembekileyo ukuqikelela inani labemi liphela. La manqaku anokwenziwa ngumntu omnye kunye nokubala okungalunganga kunokwenziwa. Indawo yokuhanjiswa kwejografi ifikelela phakathi kwehektare ezingama-600.
Ngenxa yokuba yoyikiswa ukunyamalala kwayo, ezinye izinto zenziwa ngenxa yemeko yolondolozo. Kule nto, ubuncinci izithuba zendalo ezili-16 zikwimeko ekhuselweyo. Ezi zikhewu zigciniwe ngethemba lokuba ziya kukwazi ukuvuselela inani lezi zilwanyana.
Enye yeendlela zokuziphatha kwezi zilwanyana kukuba ziyasebenza ngexesha lasebusuku. Ngokungafaniyo nezinye izilwanyana, ii-aye-aye zihlala zigcinwa zodwa kunokuhlala ngokwamaqela amakhulu. Umntu ngamnye unendawo yakhe ekuhlaleni. Ngamanye amaxesha sifumana amadoda angaphezulu kwamabhinqa kwaye ahambelana ngcono kunawo. Ngamanye amaxesha sifumana okwahlukileyo.
Inyaniso yokuba zizilwanyana ezizimeleyo ayithethi ukuba azenzi naluphi na uhlobo lokuthetha ukunxibelelana. Esinye sezandi eziphindaphindwayo abazenzayo zizikhalazo ezincinci, ukugcuma, kunye nezandi ezivakala ngathi "tishu" kunye "hai-hai." Ezi zandi zikhutshwa ngenjongo yokwazisa omnye nomnye ngobukho bolunye uhlobo lwerhamncwa olunokubamba.
Ukuveliswa kwakhona
Abasetyhini banakho ukubanakho ukutshatisa ukoma kumntu oyindoda. Ngenxa yokuvuvukala kunye nokutshintsha kombala, sinokubona i-estrus yabasetyhini ukuya kwiintsuku ezili-9. Ilungu lobudoda liyakwazi ukudumba ngeli nqanaba. Olunye lweempawu ezinceda ukwahlula inqanaba lokuzala kwakhona kukuba amalungu esini obudoda anganika inani elikhulu lamanqaku evumba. Oku kunceda ukuphawula intsimi kunye nokubonisa ubukho babo xa ujonge iqabane labo.
Isini sithatha malunga neentsuku ezili-152 ukuya kwezili-172. Ixesha lokuzalwa liphakathi kweminyaka emi-2 ukuya kwe-3. Ke ngoko, xa umntu obhinqileyo emncinci, akaphindi akwenze de kube kweli xesha. Sesinye sezizathu zokuba ukukhula kancinci kwabemi kwenza ukuba ukubuyela kwakhona kuye kancinci. Abancinci bazalwa benamazinyo okufakelwa okwethutyana agqityiweyo ekondleni okunqabileyo. Ukutyiswa kwezi zilwanyana kuyindalo yonke.
Xa besebancinci batya ikakhulu kwizityalo ngenxa yokungabikho kwamazinyo okutya izilwanyana. Kamva zitya imibungu.
Izisongelo ze-aye-aye
Njengoko besesitshilo ngaphambili, ezi zilwanyana zisemngciphekweni wokutshabalala kuba zinexesha lokuphuhla kancinci kunye noluhlu oluncinci. Ukongeza, bayachaphazeleka ngabantu njengoko imeko yezinto eziphilayo zitshatyalaliswayo kunye nokuzingela okungekho mthethweni kuyanda. I-Aye-aye kukujolisa kwizoyikiso ezininzi. Phakathi kwezona zibaluleke kakhulu sifumana ukutshatyalaliswa kwendawo yokuhlala ehlisa umgangatho wobomi kunye namandla okuphuhlisa nokuzingela.
Ukuzingela ngumsebenzi ovelisa ipesenti ephezulu yokufa kuba abantu baneembali zeenkolelo apho babekwa ityala lokuzisa amashwa ngenxa yokubonakala kwabo. Ezi zilwanyana kucingelwa ukuba zinako ukutsala ukufa apho zisenzeka khona. Ngesi sizathu, i-aye-aye iyafana neempawu ezimbi kwezinye iinkcubeko.
Kubantu abaninzi belali, ukubona i-aye-aye kufutshane nelali kuthetha ukuba umntu uza kufa. Nokuba yintlekele iya kwenzeka okanye sisilwanyana ngokwaso esiya kuthi sikhathalele ukuphelisa ubomi bomntu ebusuku. Ukuze oku kungenzeki, kufuneka ubabulale. Kunzima ukukholisa iqela elikhulu labantu ukuba le yinkolelo nje engeyonyani kwaye ezo zenzo zibeka emngciphekweni wokuphila kohlobo. Inkcubeko egxile ngokunzulu. Esinye isizathu sokuba babulawe kukuba kuthathwa njengohlobo lwesitshabalalisi kwizityalo.
Ndiyathemba ukuba ngolu lwazi ungafunda ngakumbi malunga ne-aye-aye.
