Njengoba noma imuphi umnikazi wesilwane esifuywayo azi, uthuthukisa isibopho somzwelo esihlukile nomngane wakho oyisilwane ozikhethelayo.Uxoxa nenja, ubonisana ne-hamster futhi utshele izimfihlo zakho ze-parakeet ongeke uzitshele omunye umuntu.Futhi, nakuba ingxenye yakho isola ukuthi wonke umsebenzi ungase ube yize, enye ingxenye yakho inethemba ngasese ukuthi ngandlela-thile isilwane sakho osithandayo siyaqonda.
Kodwa izilwane zikuqondani, futhi kungakanani?Ngokwesibonelo, uyazi ukuthi isilwane siyakwazi ukujabulela injabulo, kodwa ingabe siyaba namahlaya?Ingabe inqwaba yakho yothando enoboya ingaliqonda ihlaya noma icindezele i-guffaw lapho uwisa into esindayo ezinzwaneni zakho?Ingabe izinja noma amakati nanoma yisiphi isilwane sihleka ngendlela esihleka ngayo?Kungani sihleka?Izizathu ezenza abantu bahlekwe yinto engaqondakali.Wonke umuntu emhlabeni, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhuluma luphi ulimi, uyakwenza futhi sonke sikwenza singanakile.Kuvele kuphume amagwebu ngaphakathi kwethu futhi asikwazi ukuzibamba ukuthi kwenzeke.Kuyathelelana, kuhlalisana kanye nento esiyithuthukisayo ngaphambi kokuthi sikhulume.Kucatshangwa ukuthi ikhona ukuze inikeze into ehlanganisayo phakathi kwabantu, kuyilapho enye ithiyori ithi yaqala njengomsindo oyisixwayiso ukuze kugqanyiswe okungahlangani, njengokuvela okungazelelwe kwengwe ye-sabre-tooth.Ngakho, nakuba singazi ukuthi kungani sikwenza, siyazi ukuthi siyakwenza.Kodwa ingabe izilwane ziyagigitheka, futhi uma kungenjalo, kungani kungenjalo?
Izinkawu ezinamahlathi Ngokuqondakalayo njengoba zisondelene kakhulu nezilwane, izimfene, ama-gorilla, ama-bonobos nama-orangutan acula ukuzijabulisa phakathi nokujaha imidlalo noma lapho ekitazwa.Le misindo ifana kakhulu nokukhefuzela, kodwa okuthakazelisayo ukuthi izinkawu ezisondelene kakhulu nathi, njengezimfene, zibonisa amagama azwakala kalula ngokuhleka komuntu kunohlobo olukude kakhulu njenge-orang-utan, umsindo wazo ojabulisayo ofana nowethu.
Iqiniso lokuthi le misindo ikhishwa ngesikhathi sokushukumisa njengokukitaza liphakamisa ukuthi ukuhleka kwavela ngaphambi kwanoma yiluphi uhlobo lwenkulumo.Kubikwa ukuthi u-Koko, i-gorilla edumile esebenzisa ulimi lwezandla, wake wabopha izintambo zezicathulo zikanozinti wakhe wabe esesayina ethi 'chase me' ebonisa, okungenzeka, ikhono lokwenza amahlaya.
Amagwababa aqhumayo Kodwa kuthiwani ngegatsha lezilwane elihluke ngokuphelele njengezinyoni?Impela abalingisi bezinyoni abambalwa abahlakaniphile njengezinyoni ze-mynah kanye namaphela baye babonakala belingisa ukuhleka futhi abanye bopholi baze baziwa ngokugcona ezinye izilwane, ngemibiko yenyoni eyodwa eshaya ikhwela futhi idida inja yomndeni, ngenxa nje yokuzijabulisa kwayo.Amagwababa namanye ama-corvids aziwa ngokusebenzisa amathuluzi ukuze athole ukudla futhi adonse imisila yezilwane ezidla ezinye.Kwakucatshangwa ukuthi lokhu kwakuwukubaphazamisa nje lapho bentshontsha ukudla, kodwa manje kuye kwafakazelwa lapho kungekho ukudla, okusikisela ukuthi le nyoni ikwenzele ukuzijabulisa nje.Ngakho-ke kungenzeka ukuthi ezinye izinyoni zinomuzwa wokuhlekisa, futhi zingase zihleke, kodwa asikakakwazi ukukukhomba.
Amahlaya esilwane Ezinye izidalwa ziyaziwa futhi ngokuhleka, njengamagundane, 'atshiyozayo' lapho ekitazwa ezindaweni ezibucayi njengasentanyeni.Amahlengethwa abonakala ekhipha imisindo yenjabulo ngenkathi edlala, ukuphakamisa ukuthi ukuziphatha akulona usongo kulabo abawazungezile, kuyilapho izindlovu zivame ukukhala uma zidlala.Kodwa cishe akunakwenzeka ukufakazela ukuthi lokhu kuziphatha kuqhathaniswa nokuhleka komuntu noma umsindo nje isilwane esithanda ukuwenza phakathi nezimo ezithile.
Izilwane ezifuywayo ziyazonda Ngakho kuthiwani ngezilwane ezifuywayo ezindlini zethu?Bayakwazi ukusihleka?Kunobufakazi obusikisela ukuthi izinja zenze uhlobo lokuhleka lapho zijabulela ukuzithokozisa okufana nephenti eliphefumulayo eliphoqelelwe elihlukile ekuthunjweni kwe-sonic kuya ekuphefumuleni okuvamile okusetshenziselwa ukulawula izinga lokushisa.Amakati, ngakolunye uhlangothi, kwakucatshangwa ukuthi avela ukuze angabonisi imizwa nhlobo njengento yokusinda endle.Ngokusobala i-purring ingabonisa ukuthi ikati linelisekile, kodwa ama-purrs nama-mews nawo angasetshenziswa ukukhombisa inani lezinye izinto.
Amakati nawo abonakala ejabulela ukuzibandakanya ekuziphatheni okubi okuhlukahlukene, kodwa lokhu kungase kube umzamo nje wokuheha ukunaka kunokubukisa uhlangothi lwawo oluhlekisayo.Ngakho-ke, ngokuya ngesayensi, kubonakala sengathi amakati awakwazi ukuhleka futhi ungaduduzwa ukwazi ukuthi ikati lakho alikuhleki.Noma kunjalo, uma bengathola amandla okwenza kanjalo, sisola ukuthi bazokwazi.
