I-Majestic Giant of the Sea: I-Blue Whale
La Umkhomo oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, isilwane esikhulu kunazo zonke esake saphila emhlabeni wethu, sifinyelela ubude obufinyelela kumamitha angu-30 futhi sinesisindo samathani angaphezu kuka-170. Ubukhulu bayo bukhulu kangangokuthi inhliziyo yayo inesisindo esilingana nesemoto encane. Ihlala cishe kuzo zonke izilwandle nezilwandle emhlabeni, isusa umbono wemingcele ohambweni lwayo oludabula amagagasi.
Nokho, lo mdondoshiya ungesinye sezidalwa ezithambile nezinokuthula kakhulu olwandle. Ukudla kwayo kuhlanganisa kakhulu i-krill, izilwane ezincane ezingenamgogodla ezizihlunga emanzini nge-baleen yayo ende, eguquguqukayo. Naphezu kobukhulu bawo, umkhomo oluhlaza awulona nje usongo kunoma yiziphi ezinye izidalwa zasolwandle.
Ukuvuka Nokuwa: Umlando Wokuhlukunyezwa Kwabantu
Kwaphela amakhulu eminyaka, iBlue Whale ijabulela ukuphila ngokuthula olwandle. Lokhu kwashintsha kakhulu ngokufika kwe-industrial-scale whaling ekhulwini lama-20. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi eminyakeni engamashumi ayisithupha yokuqala yekhulu lama-20, inani leBlue Whale lancipha 90% ngenxa yokuzingela ngokweqile nokudayisa.
Namuhla, ukudotshwa kwemikhomo kuvinjelwe kakhulu, okunikeza inani le-Blue Whale ithuba lokululama. Nokho, umonakalo usuwenziwe kakade futhi ukululama kuyinqubo ehamba kancane futhi enzima.
Ukushintsha Kwesimo Sezulu: Ingozi ecashile
Ingozi enkulu nakakhulu ku-Blue Whale yi- ukushintsha kwesimo sezulu. Izilwandle ezifudumalayo ngenxa yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu zishintsha izindlela zokufuduka kwemikhomo futhi kunciphisa inani lama-krill, ukudla okuyinhloko kweBlue Whale.
Ukwengeza, amazinga e-CO2 akhuphukayo emkhathini enza izilwandle zibe ne-asidi, okungaba yingozi ku-krill nezinye izinhlobo ze-Blue Whales ezithembele kuzo.
Ukungcoliswa kwe-Acoustic nokuqondile koLwandle
Enye ingozi ukungcola komsindo osolwandle. Ama-Blue Whale, njengezinye izinhlobo zemikhomo, ancike emisindweni ukuze axhumane, azulazule, futhi afune ukudla. Nokho, umsindo obangelwa imisebenzi yabantu, kusukela ekuthuthweni kwemikhumbi kuya ekuhloleni kokuzamazama komhlaba ukuze kukhishwe uwoyela negesi, ugcwala ulwandle ngomsindo, uphazamisa lezi zinqubo ezibalulekile.
Ngaphezu kwalokhu, ukungcola olwandle okuvela kumfucumfucu wepulasitiki kanye nemfucumfucu yamakhemikhali kwehlisa isithunzi kakhulu indawo yalo yokuhlala.
Yini eyenziwayo ukuze kusindiswe umkhomo?
Naphezu kwazo zonke lezi zinsongo, likhona ithemba ngeBlue Whale. Izinhlangano zamazwe ngamazwe, ohulumeni kanye nezishoshovu basebenza ndawonye ukuze bavikele futhi balondoloze lezi zilwane ezimangalisayo. Phakathi kwezenzo ezenziwayo singagqamisa:
- Ukuvinjelwa kwamazwe ngamazwe ekudobeni imikhomo.
- Ucwaningo nokuqapha abantu beBlue Whale.
- Ukwakhiwa kwezindawo ezivikelwe kanye namaphasishi aphephile afudukayo.
- Imizamo yokunciphisa ukungcoliswa kolwandle nomsindo.
Le mpi akuyona nje eyeBlue Whale, futhi ingeyempilo nokulinganisela kwezilwandle zethu, futhi ekugcineni eyekusasa lethu kule planethi.
