Ingxenye yeDolphin, Ingxenye Yamanga Abulala Inkomo Yenza kahle
I-Kekaimalu, i-hybrid kuphela ephilayo eyaziwa nge-whale killer ne-Atlantic bottlenose dolphin, noma "wholphin", yazala ithole lesifazane ngoDisemba 23, 2004 e-Sea Life Park esiqhingini sase-Oahu. Namuhla, bobabili umama nendodakazi, uKawili Kai, bangabonakala ePark.
Iyini i-Wholphin?
Igama elithi "wholphin" laqalwa ngo-1985 lapho ihlengethwa elingamamitha angu-6 ne-14-foot foot killer whale likhulile futhi laveza inzalo.
Ngaphambi kwalokho ukulingana, kwakungacatshangwa ukuthi kungenzeka ukuba uhlangane nalezi zinhlobo ezimbili. Umama wakhe, uPunahele, wayeyihlengethwa ye-bottlenose yase-Atlantic, kuyilapho ubaba wakhe, u-Ianui, engumbulali wamanga wamanga.
Amangcwaba ezibulala amanga empeleni angamalungu omndeni wamahlengethwa futhi awahlobene nemikhomo yokubulala. Amadoda angaba ngamamitha angu-22 ubude futhi anesisindo esingamathani amabili, kuyilapho abesifazane bebancane, befinyelela ngamamitha angu-16 ubude.
Ezingxenyeni zasendle zokubulala amanga ngokuvamile zihlobana nezinye izinhlobo zehlengethwa, ikakhulukazi amahlengethwa e-bottlenose. Zitholakala kaningi emanzini afudumele futhi ashisayo emhlabeni jikelele
I-Kekaimalu ne-Her Calf
I-Kekaimalu ("kusukela olwandle olulondoloziwe") yigama elinikezwe leyo nzalo yasekuqaleni manje engumama we-wholphin entsha. Lokhu kwaba ukukhulelwa okwesithathu kweKekaimalu. Zombili izingane zangaphambi kokufa zisencane, enye iseneminyaka eyisishiyagalolunye.
Umntwana omusha, okuthiwa uKawili Kai ungama-dolphin angu-3/4 kanye no-1/4 we-whale whale whale.
Ukuqeqeshwa kwepaki kanye nabasebenzi bezilwane bechitha isikhathi eside phezu kwezinyanga ezine zokuqala zezingane zokuqoqa idatha nokuqinisekisa ukuthi umama nethole babethole ukunakekelwa okungcono ngaphambi kokumemezela obala ukuzalwa nokuthuthukiswa kwayo.
Enamandla kakhulu futhi enempilo, umntwana obesebenza kahle nomama nabaqeqeshi bakhe.
Ukusebenzisana kokuqala kwamanzi nethole kwakuyingxenye yeLwandle Life Park ngehlelo lokuqeqesha i-Dolphin Discovery, ukuqinisekisa izinga eliphezulu lokuthembela phakathi kwethole, umama nabaqeqeshi, kanye nesimo sokuqala sokuziphatha ngokuzithandela kwezokwelapha.
Izimpawu ze-Wholphin
I-baby wholphin ibonise izici eziphawulekayo ezizuzwe njengefa elivela kulayini wakhe we-hybrid. Umbala uyingxube ephelele phakathi kwegrey ekhanyayo yehlengethwa ye-bottlenose nomnyama we-whale wokubulala amanga.
Ezinyangeni zokuqala, ithole lithembele ngokugcwele ngobisi lukanina. Wayephumula ngezikhathi zonke emini nasebusuku, futhi bonke abahlengikazi behlala ngaphansi kwamanzi.
Ukuhlengikala kwaqhubeka kwaze kwaphela izinyanga eziyisishiyagalolunye ngaphambi kokuba ithole liqale ukulinganisa ukudla komama wakhe. Izinyanga ezimbalwa emva kokuzalwa, kwakuyi-dolphin eneminyaka eyodwa ubudala ubudala. Ngesikhathi esingaphansi kweminyaka engama-year ubudala, ithole lalinqunywa ngokuphelele.
Amazwana avela kuMphathi Jikelele we-Sea Life Park
"Sijabule kakhulu ngokuzalwa kwengane," kusho uDkt. Renato Lenzi, umphathi jikelele we-Sea Life Park yi-Dolphin Discovery. "Umama namathole benza kahle kakhulu, futhi sibaqapha kakhulu ukuze baqinisekise ukuthi banakekelwa kangcono. Ngaphezulu kwezinsuku eziyi-100 zokuphila zalesi sithole, sasibeke imali engaphezu kwamahora angu-2 400 amaqeqeshini kanye nesikhathi sokulondoloza imfuyo ukuqinisekisa Ukunakekelwa kahle komama nomntwana. "
"Ngokombono wezesayensi, kuyasithakazelisa ukuba sibone ukuthuthukiswa kwezingane kanye nokuziphatha kwalowo mntwana nokuthi uzuze kangakanani izitshalo ezimbili ezihlukahlukene ezithwala amagciwane akhe," kusho uDkt. Lenzi. "Njengomkhiqizo kuphela ophilayo we-wholphin, sinikezwa ithuba elikhethekile nelesipesheli lesayensi nesemfundo."
Mayelana ne-Sea Life Park
