I-Rosella eluhlaza

I-Rosella eluhlaza (i-Platycercus caledonicus)

UKUBALULEKILE

Ipharakethi eliphakathi nendawo elinobude bomzimba obufika ku-37 cm nesisindo esingafika ku-142 g. Umzimba udilizwe, ikhanda lincane. Uqhwaku, nokho, mukhulu impela. Umbala wezimpaphe ugqamile kakhulu - ngemuva kwekhanda nangemuva kunsundu, amahlombe, izimpaphe zokundiza emaphikweni kanye nomsila unombala osasibhakabhaka ojulile. Ikhanda, isifuba kanye nesisu esiphuzi ngokuluhlaza. Isiphongo sibomvu, umphimbo uluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka. I-dimorphism yocansi ayiyona into evamile ngombala, abesifazane bahluke kancane - umbala womphimbo awunamandla kakhulu. Ngokuvamile abesilisa bakhulu kunabesifazane ngosayizi futhi banoqhwaku olukhulu. Izinhlobo zihlanganisa 2 subspecies ezahlukene izakhi umbala. Ubude bokuphila ngokunakekelwa okufanele yiminyaka eyi-10-15.

INDAWO YOKUHLALA KANYE NEMPILO ENDALO

Ama rosella aluhlaza ahlala e-Australia, esiqhingini saseTasmania nakwezinye iziqhingi eziseBass Strait. Ngokuvamile zihlala ezindaweni eziphakeme ezifika ku-1500 m ngaphezu kwezinga lolwandle. Bathanda amahlathi asezindaweni eziphansi, amahlathi eucalyptus. Zitholakala ezintabeni, emahlathini ashisayo, eduze nosebe lwemifula. Lezi zopholi zingatholakala eduze nendawo okuhlala abantu - ezingadini, emasimini nasemapaki edolobha. Iqiniso elithakazelisayo ukuthi ama-rosella aluhlaza afuywayo andiza esuka kubanikazi bakhe ikoloni elincane eduze kwedolobha laseSydney e-Australia. Ngaphandle kwenkathi yokuzalanisa, ngokuvamile ahlala emihlambini emincane yabantu abangu-4 kuya ku-5, kodwa ngezinye izikhathi aduka abe imihlambi emikhulu, kuhlanganise nezinye izinhlobo zamarosella. Ngokuvamile, abalingani bagcinana isikhathi eside impela. Ukudla kuvame ukuhlanganisa ukudla okusanhlamvu - imbewu yotshani, izithelo zezihlahla, amajikijolo, futhi ngezinye izikhathi izilwane ezincane ezingenamgogodla. Imvamisa, lapho izinyoni zidla phansi, ziziphatha ngokuthula, nokho, lapho zihlezi ezihlahleni, ziba nomsindo. Lapho zidla, zingasebenzisa izidladla zazo ukuze zibambe ukudla. Ngaphambili, abomdabu babedla inyama yalezi zinyoni, kamuva babona izitha zezolimo kuma-rosella aluhlaza futhi baziqothula. Okwamanje, lolu hlobo luningi kakhulu futhi kuzo zonke izinhlobo ze-rosella zibangela ukwesaba okuncane kokushabalala.

UKUZALWA

Isikhathi sokuzalanisa ama-rosella aluhlaza singoSepthemba-February. Izinyoni zivame ukuhlala lapho zineminyaka embalwa ubudala, kodwa izinyoni ezincane zingase zizame ukukhwelana futhi zifune izindawo zokuzalela. Lolu hlobo, njengamanye ama-parrots amaningi, lungowezidleke ezingenalutho. Ngokuvamile umgodi ukhethwa endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angaba ngu-30 ngaphansi komhlaba. Insikazi izalela amaqanda amhlophe angama-4-5 esidlekeni. Ukufukamela kuthatha izinsuku ezingaba ngu-20, insikazi kuphela ifukamela, eyeduna iyayifunza sonke lesi sikhathi. Futhi lapho eneminyaka engamaviki angu-5, amatshwele akhulile futhi azimele ngokuphelele ashiya isidleke. Abazali babo basazondla amasonto ambalwa.
