Siyazi ukuthi umuntu ubangela imithelela eminingi emvelweni futhi, ngayo, ezimileni nasezilwaneni zomhlaba. Njengoba senza yonke imvelo yemvelo ibe semadolobheni futhi singcolisa amanzi, inhlabathi nomoya, izinhlobo ziya ngokuya zanda futhi inani labantu liyancipha.
Futhi ukuthi inani lezilwane nezinhlobo zezitshalo ezisongelwa ngandlela thile ifinyelele kwirekhodi layo elisha ngo-2017. Ngabe ufuna ukwazi isimo sezinto eziphilayo zomhlaba?
Qopha ezinhlotsheni ezisengozini
Leli rekhodi lezinhlobo ezisongelwayo, eliwumphumela womthelela wezemvelo omkhulu kunangaphambili, lithinta ama-30% azo zonke izinhlobo zezilwane ezihlolwayo ukulungiselela unyaka nonyaka weRed List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Uhlu olwenziwa yi-IUCN unyaka nonyaka iqukethe izinhlobo ezingama-25.800 ezihlaziyiweyo phakathi kwawo kukhona ama-pangolin, ama-koalas, ama-seahorses nezinambuzane ezindizayo. Lezi zinhlobo zithinteke kakhulu ngonyaka we-2017 ngemithelela yabantu. Yonke le datha ikhonjiswa kubhalansi ekupheleni konyaka.
Unyaka u-2016 uvale uhlu lwezinhlobo ezisongelwayo nge izinhlobo ezingaba ngu-24.000, okukhombisa ukuthi ezinye izinhlobo eziyi-1.800 sezivele zaba sengozini ethile.
Ukuqothulwa kwezinhlobo zezinto eziphilayo singacabanga ukuthi ngeke kusithinte ngokuqondile. Kodwa-ke, kunezinhlobo eziningi ezisongelwayo ezizosithinta, njengezinyosi nezinye izinambuzane ezizonyamalala kancane kancane emasimini ethu.
Izinambuzane ezingcolisa impova
Izinambuzane ezingcolisa impova zibalulekile ezithelweni zezithelo nemifino, ngoba izitshalo eziningi zisatshalaliswa imbewu yazo ngesilwane njengendlela yokusabalalisa.
Izinambuzane ezithutha impova zingaba mbalwa eminyakeni embalwa kulo lonke elaseYurophu ngenxa yokusebenzisa kakhulu izibulala-zinambuzane kwezolimo. Ukuze ubone isibonelo esicacile, eJalimane izinambuzane ezindizayo zehle ngo-75% eminyakeni engama-27 kuphela.
Ngakho-ke, ukwanda kwemikhuba emihle yezolimo kanye nezolimo zemvelo kungasiza ekufezeni ukusetshenziswa okuhle kwezibulala-zinambuzane, umthwalo hhayi emkhakheni wezolimo kuphela, kepha nangamadolobha nabantu abasebenzisa izibulala-zinambuzane ngaphandle kokubheka umthelela ongaba khona babe ngokwemvelo.
Amapangini
Ama-Pangolin ayizinhlobo ezithinteka kakhulu kulo nyaka, ikakhulukazi ngabashushumbisi. Kusukela ngoJanuwari odlule, ukuhweba kwayo kwamazwe omhlaba bekuvinjelwe ngokuphelele, kepha kubonakala sengathi akusizi ngalutho, ngoba kuyinhlobo eye yacekelwa phansi phakathi nale 2017.
Lesi silwane esincelisayo sizingelwa ngabazingeli abangekho emthethweni kwazise yiso kuphela esinesikhumba esimbozwe izikali ezinkulu. Zombili izikhumba zabo kanye nezilwane eziphilayo ziyaqhubeka nokuthathwa e-Afrika nase-Asia kanti i-IUCN ilinganisela ukuthi kunabantu abayizigidi eziyi-1,1 zezinhlobo eziphilayo ezabanjwa eminyakeni eyi-16 edlule kuwo womabili amazwekazi.
Lokhu kubi kakhulu uma usho izindlovu emahlathini ase-Afrika, ngoba isibalo sazo sehliswe ngo-66%, saya ku nabantu abangaphansi kuka-10.000. Lesi simo esibucayi sidalwa ukushushumbiswa kwamazinyo abo ngokungemthetho.
Ama-seahorses
Olwandle nathi asisindiswanga; isibalo sabasolwandle sehle ngama-30% emanzini aseYurophu kule minyaka eyishumi edlule.
Kokubili ukudoba nokuhweba kwayo akuvunyelwe eMedithera. Kodwa lokhu akuvimbeli ukuthi bangabanjwa ngephutha kumanetha abadobi. Lokhu kungezelela kumthelela okuba nawo ekusetshenzisweni ngokweqile komanyolo, ukuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu kanye nokubanjiswa kwetrawling, zonke izinto ezinciphisa inani labantu.
Isimo sama-koala naso sibi, nge-80% yabantu bayo isinyamalale ezifundeni ezithile zase-Australia kusukela ngeminyaka yamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye, phakathi kwezinye izimbangela ngenxa yokucekelwa phansi kwamahlathi e-eucalyptus wonke akha indawo yawo yemvelo.
Njengoba ukwazi ukubona, umuntu ubhubhisa zonke izinhlobo zezilwane nezitshalo emhlabeni.
