Ijenali:Ukuziphatha Kwezilwane UMqulu 215, Septhemba 2024, Amakhasi 143-152
Uhlobo (ilulwane):amakhreni anentamo emnyama
Isifinyezo:
Ukuxhumana okufudukayo kuchaza izinga lapho izilwane ezifudukayo zixubana khona phakathi kwesikhala nesikhathi. Ngokungafani nabantu abadala, izinyoni ezincane zivame ukubonisa amaphethini ahlukile okufuduka futhi ziqhubeka nokuthuthukisa ukuziphatha kwazo kokufuduka kanye nezindawo lapho zikhula khona. Ngenxa yalokho, ithonya lokunyakaza kwabantu abadala ekuxhumekeni okufudukayo lingase lihluke kwelabantu abadala. Kodwa-ke, izifundo zamanje mayelana nokuxhumana okufudukayo zivame ukunganaki izakhiwo zeminyaka yabantu, ikakhulukazi zigxile kubantu abadala. Kulesi sifundo, sihlole indima yokunyakaza kwabantu abadala ekwakheni ukuxhumana kwezinga labantu ngokusebenzisa idatha yokulandelela isathelayithi evela kuma-crane angu-214 amnyama, i-Grus nigricollis, entshonalanga yeShayina. Siqale sahlola umehluko ekuhlukanisweni kwendawo kuma-cohorts ahlukene eminyaka sisebenzisa i-coefficient yokuxhumana kwe-Mantel eqhubekayo nedatha evela ezinganeni ezingu-17 ezilandelwa ngonyaka ofanayo iminyaka emi-3 elandelanayo. Sabe sesibala ukuxhumana okuqhubekayo kokufuduka kwesikhathi kwabantu bonke (okuhlanganisa amaqembu ahlukahlukene eminyaka) kusukela mhla ziyi-15 kuMandulo kuya kumhla ziyi-15 kuNovemba futhi saqhathanisa umphumela noweqembu lomndeni (eliqukethe izingane ezincane nabantu abadala kuphela). Imiphumela yethu yembule ubudlelwano obuhle phakathi kokwehluka kwesikhathi ekuhlukanisweni kwendawo kanye nobudala ngemva kokuhlukana kwezingane ezindala, okuphakamisa ukuthi izingane ezincane kungenzeka ukuthi zilungise izindlela zazo zokufuduka. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuxhumana okufudukayo kweqembu lezingane ezineminyaka yonke kwakuphakathi (ngaphansi kuka-0.6) ngesikhathi sasebusika, futhi kuphansi kakhulu kunokweqembu lomndeni ngesikhathi sasekwindla. Njengoba sibheka umthelela omkhulu wezingane ezincane ekuxhumekeni okufudukayo, sincoma ukusebenzisa idatha eqoqwe ezinyonini kuzo zonke izigaba zobudala ukuthuthukisa ukunemba kokulinganisa ukuxhumana okufudukayo kwezinga labantu.
