ʻIke paha ʻaʻohe mea kolo kolohe a kolohe paha i hiki ke noho inoa ʻole a hiki i kēia lā, akā aia kekahi!
ʻIke paha ʻaʻohe mea kolo kolohe a kolohe paha i hiki ke noho inoa ʻole a hiki i kēia lā, akā aia kekahi!
ʻO Mekiko, e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia, kekahi o nā mea ulu a momona like ʻole o ka flora a me nā holoholona i ka honua, kahi waiwai i ʻoi aku ma muli o kona wahi wahi kikoʻī ma mua o ka nui. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻaʻohe ʻāina ma ka honua i home i nā ʻano o nā mea kolo e like me kā mākou e emi nui nei. Ehia mau kikoʻī? ʻAʻohe mea i ʻike a hiki i kēia manawa. Ke nīnau ʻia me kahi loea i ke kula, e ʻōlelo ʻo ia aia ma kahi o 760, kahi kiʻi kokoke i nā ʻano o nā mea kolo i ʻike ʻia i ka ʻepekema. Akā ʻoi aku ka nui o kā lākou helu, mai kēlā makahiki a kēia makahiki ʻike ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona hou a, kūlohelohe, a me kekahi ʻano o nā holoholona.
I ka hihia o nā mea kolo, ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou he poʻe saurian a inconspicuous, nahesa he nui ʻole, hūnā ʻia i nā wahi hūnā, a hiki i kēia lā i hiki ke pakele i ka ʻike kanaka. Pēlā ke ʻano o nā holoholona e noho ana ma nā wahi he nui o nā ʻōnaehana mauna Mekiko i hiki ʻole i ka haumāna. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, ʻaʻole i manaʻo ʻia aia kekahi e ʻike nei i nā mea kolo a hōʻike paha i hiki ke noho inoa ʻole a hiki i kēia lā. Akā aia nō! ʻO Gunther Koehler kahi kumu hoʻohālikelike maikaʻi loa i hāʻawi ʻia e kahi kanaka herpetologist Kelemania ma 1994 i loaʻa ma Campeche hema i kahi saurian i ʻike ʻole ʻia, o ka genus Ctenosaura, i kapa ʻia ʻo ka iguana ʻeleʻele.
ʻO Koehler, he loea ma kēia hui o iguanas, ua kapa ʻia ʻo Ctenosaura alfredschmidti no ka hoʻohanohano ʻana i kāna hoa a me ka mea hoʻolaha o ka herpetology, ʻo Alfred Schmidt.
I kēia manawa, ʻike wale ʻia ka Ctenosaura alfredschmidti mai kahi i loaʻa ai no ka manawa mua, ʻo ia hoʻi, kokoke i ke ala nui e holo ana mai Escárcega a Chetumal. ʻAno ʻike ʻole ʻia ko lākou ʻano o ke ola a me nā loina. Noho ka Ctenosaura alfredschmidti i nā kumulāʻau a liʻiliʻi ke kolo i ka honua. Ma kona wahi o ke kumu i ʻike ʻia ia ma ke ʻano he "scorpion" no ka mea ua hoʻokaʻawale hewa ʻia ia me he lāʻau ʻawahia.
Ana ka "scorpion" i ke kiʻekiʻena o 33 knm, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻaʻole ia he nui e like me nā ʻano nui o kona genus, hiki ke ana i ka mika o ka huina. ʻO lākou āpau ka "scorpion" ʻoi loa ka nani. ʻO ka mea e pā aku nei i kāna huelo pōkole i uhi ʻia i nā unahi manamana, a hoʻohana ʻo ia e paʻa paʻa i loko o kona wahi hūnā, ʻaʻole hiki ke hele i waho. Hoʻomaopopo ka waihoʻoluʻu o kona kino iā ia mai nā iguana ʻē aʻe, koe wale nō kona hoahānau pili, ka mea pale Ctenosaura iguana, kahi e like me ka "scorpion" e noho wale nei i ka penikala ʻo Yucatan a kaulana ʻia ʻo "chop" .
Ma nā ʻōlelo laulā, ua like loa ka "scorpion" a me ka mea pale Ctenosaura iguana, ʻoiai aia he mau ʻokoʻa ma waena o lākou e pili ana i ka nohona. ʻOiai ʻo ka mea mua e ola i nā kumulāʻau, ke ola ka "ʻoki" i nā lua hāiki i nā pōhaku, kokoke i ka honua.
ʻO nā kāne he "kalaunu" ʻoi loa ke kala. ʻO kona poʻo, ka huelo a me nā wāwae hope e ʻālohilohi i ka polū malachite, ʻoiai ʻeleʻele ke kua i mua, a ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula a ʻulaʻula paha i ka hope. Hiki iā ia ke hoʻololi i kona kala i ka wikiwiki o ka chameleon. Ke haʻalele nei i kona wahi peʻe i ke kakahiaka, ʻikea mai ka puʻupuʻu "puʻupuʻu" i ke kani, akā i ka hoʻomehana ʻana o kona kino a lilo i mea hana, hōʻike ia i kahi waihoʻoluʻu nani a ʻōlinolino hoʻi.
ʻO ka "scorpion" wahine, ʻeleʻele i ke kala, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka hōʻike ma mua o ke kāne a me ka liʻiliʻi i ka nui. E like me nā ʻano Ctenosaura āpau, loaʻa i ka "scorpion" nā māiʻuʻu ʻoi loa a ʻoi hoʻi e piʻi maʻalahi i nā lāʻau pahee.
ʻO ka maʻamau ʻo ka "scorpion" ka mea noho wale i loko o kāna lua. Hiki i ke kāne a me ka wahine ke moe i ka manawa like i ka lāʻau like, ʻoiai i loko o kahi lua ʻokoʻa. Hoʻolilo kēia ʻano i ka pō a me ka hapa nui o ke ao i kāna lua, ʻo ke anawaena o ia mea nui e komo a puka me ka pilikia ʻole. Eia nō naʻe, ke ulu nei kona ulu i ka loli o kona noho ʻana me kekahi alapine. I kona wahi hūnā e paheʻe maʻamau i mua, e hoʻokuʻu ana i kāna huelo e komo i ka lua, hiki ʻole i nā ʻenemi hiki ke hoʻouka iā ia.
I ka hoʻomehana ʻana o ka ea, heʻe hou ka "scorpion" mai kāna puka a bask i ka lā. Ke hiki i kou kino i ka mahana kūpono, lawe ia i ka hana o ka ʻimi ʻana i nā meaʻai i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻAi ʻo ia, e like me kona ʻano a pau, i nā mea kanu, ʻo ia hoʻi, ma nā lau o ka lāʻau kahi e noho ai, a i kekahi manawa hoʻi i nā mea kolo a me nā invertebrates ʻē aʻe. I ka ʻokoʻa, ʻo kēia ʻano, i kona wā ʻōpio, koi i kahi papaʻai momona i ka protein no kona ulu ʻana, ʻo ia ke kumu i kēia ʻano he kino nui.
E pili ana i ka hana hou ʻana o ka "scorpion", ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia kāna kaʻina hana. ʻO ka "ʻoki", e laʻana, hoʻokahi manawa i ka makahiki, ma ʻApelila, ʻelua a ʻekolu paha mau hua, a ʻaʻole ia a hiki i Iune ke kūlū ʻana o nā iguanas liʻiliʻi. Maliʻa paha he like ka hana hou ʻana o ka "scorpion" me ka "chop" e ka mea maʻalahi he ʻohana pili loa lāua.
ʻO ka Camporphe "scorpion" no ka ʻohana iguanas (Iguanidae) nui a ʻokoʻa a pili pili ʻole i nā saurians o ka genus Heloderma, i ʻike ʻia hoʻi i kona homeland ma ke ʻano he "scorpion". ʻO nā ʻano ʻelua, ʻo Heloderma horridum a me Heloderma suspectum, he mau saurian ʻona wale nō i loko o ka ʻohana like (Helodermatidae) a noho i ke kahakai kahakai Pākīpika, mai ka hema komohana o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa (Heloderma suspectum), ma o Mexico holoʻokoʻa. ʻO Guatemala (Heloderma horridum). He mea maʻamau ka loaʻa ʻana o nā ʻenemi kūlohelohe āpau i nā "scorpion" āpau. ʻAʻole ʻona ʻo Ctenosaura alfredschmidti e like me kona hoahānau, akā hiki ke nahu me ka paʻakikī, ʻoiai ka nui o ka nui, a hoʻoʻeha i nā hohonu. Hoʻohui, aia nō ia ma ka makaʻala a ʻauana hele hewa ʻole mai kona wahi hūnā. Ma ke ʻano he kanaka noho lāʻau e mālama pono i nā manu o nā mea lele.
He kanalua ʻole ke kanaka no ka hoʻoweliweli nui loa i kēia kolo kolo nānā prehistoric. ʻIke liʻiliʻi loa e pili ana i ka "scorpion" akā e hoʻopau i ka hoʻoweliweli ʻia o kona ola. ʻOiai ʻike wale ʻia ia mai kona wahi iho, hiki ke kuhi ʻia ʻoi aku ka laulā o Campeche. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo nā mea hoʻoweliweli nui i kona ola ʻana, ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe mālie ʻana o nā ululāʻau nui kahi e noho ai, a ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, ka hōʻiliʻili ʻole ʻana o ka wahie ma nā wahi o nā kauhale, e pili pū ana me nā ululāʻau kahiko a hihi. kumulāʻau kahi e peʻe ai.
No ka pale kūpono o ka "scorpion" pono ia ma luna o nā mea āpau e hoʻopaʻa i ke ʻano o ke ola a me ka hāʻawi ʻana. He mea nui nō hoʻi e hoʻomaopopo i ka heluna kanaka kūloko e pili ana i kona ʻano maikaʻi ʻole a e pili ana i ka nui o kona pale ʻana ma ke ʻano he lāhui. Inā ʻole, he mea hilahila inā nalo mau loa kēia kamaʻāina kūpilikiʻi o Mekiko, ma mua o kou manawa e hālāwai ai me ia.
