Ingabe izinja zinawo amahlaya?

Abanikazi abaningi bayazibuza ukuthi izinja zinawo yini amahlaya. Isayensi ayinikezi impendulo ecacile yalo mbuzo. Nakuba ukubonwa kwezilwane ezifuywayo kusikisela ukuthi izinja zisawaqonda amahlaya futhi ziyazi ukuzincokolela.

UStanley Coren, uprofesa wezengqondo e-University of British Columbia, umqeqeshi wezinja, isazi sokuziphatha kwezilwane, kanye nomlobi wezincwadi eziningi uyavumelana nalokhu, isibonelo.

Kungani Sithatha Izinja Zinomqondo Wokuhlekisa

UStanley Coren uthi ezinye izinhlobo zezinja, njenge-Airedale Terriers noma Irish Setters, ziziphatha njengokungathi zihlala zidlala izindima ezihlukene futhi zidlala imigilingwane ehlekisayo eqondiswe kwezinye izinja noma abantu. Kodwa-ke, le migilingwane enjengeye ingaba yingozi kakhulu empilweni yabasekeli bokuhleleka okuqinile nokuthula.

Usosayensi wokuqala owaphakamisa ukuthi izinja ziyakwazi ukuhlekisa kwakunguCharles Darwin. Uchaze ngezinja ezidlala nabanikazi bazo waqaphela ukuthi izilwane bezidlala ngabantu.

Ngokwesibonelo, umuntu uphonsa induku. Inja yenza sengathi le nduku ayimthakazelisi nhlobo. Kodwa, lapho nje umuntu esondela kuso ukuze asithathe, isilwane esifuywayo siyasuka, sihlwithe induku ngaphansi kwekhala lomnikazi futhi sibaleke ngenjabulo.

Noma inja intshontsha izinto zomnikazi, bese igijima nayo endlini, iklolodela, izivumele zifinyelele ubude bengalo, bese iyavika futhi ibaleke.

Noma umngane onemilenze emine enyonyoba esuka ngemuva, enze umsindo omkhulu othi “Woof”, bese ebuka njengoba umuntu egxuma ethukile.

Ngicabanga ukuthi wonke umuntu onenja enjalo uzokhumbula izinketho eziningi zokuzijabulisa ezahlukene kanye nemigilingwane engase iqhamuke nezilwane ezifuywayo.

Umuzwa wokuhlekisa ezinhlotsheni ezahlukene zezinja

Asikwazi ukusho ngokuqinisekile ukuthi izinja zinawo yini amahlaya. Kodwa uma sidweba ukufana phakathi komqondo wokuhleka nokudlala, singasho ukuthi kwezinye izinja kuthuthukiswe kahle kakhulu. Futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo, ungenza isilinganiso sezinhlobo ngale khwalithi. Isibonelo, i-Airedales ayikwazi ukuphila ngaphandle kokudlala, kuyilapho ama-Basset ngokuvamile enqaba ukudlala.

Ososayensi baseNyuvesi yaseCalifornia uLynneth Hart noBenjamin Hart baklelisa ukudlalwa kwezinhlobo zezinja ezingama-56. Uhlu luphezulu i-Irish Setter, i-Airedale Terrier, i-English Springer Spaniel, i-Poodle, i-Sheltie ne-Golden Retriever. Ezitebhisini ezingezansi kukhona i-Basset, i-Siberian Husky, i-Alaskan Malamute, i-Bulldogs, i-Keeshond, i-Samoyed, i-Rottweiler, i-Doberman ne-Bloodhound. Maphakathi nendawo uzobona i-Dachshund, i-Weimaraner, i-Dalmatian, i-Cocker Spaniels, ama-Pugs, ama-Beagles nama-Collies.

Njengoba ngingumnikazi oziqhenyayo we-Airedale Terrier (hhayi eyokuqala futhi ngokuqinisekile engeyena owokugcina), ngiqinisekisa ngokugcwele ukuthi abantuli ekudlaleni. Futhi nekhono lokudlala iqhinga kwabanye, futhi. Lezi zimfanelo ziyangijabulisa njalo, kodwa ngazi kahle ukuthi bakhona abantu abangacasulwa ukuziphatha okunjalo.

Ngakho-ke, uma ungafuni ukwenza imigilingwane enjengeyenja yakho, kungcono ukhethe umuntu ovela ezinhlotsheni ezingajwayele "amahlaya" kanye "nemigilingwane".
