Amapiki amakhulu kunawo wonke kwesinye isikhathi zingafinyelela ukuphakama komuntu omdala. Bahlala ikakhulu emanzini ahlanzekile e-Eurasia naseNyakatho Melika. Izinhlanzi zivame kakhulu ezindaweni ezisogwini ezinezimila eziningi.
Umdobi ngamunye ulwela ukubamba inhlanzi enkulu kunazo zonke, futhi ne-pike iyathinteka kule ndaba. Namuhla, izinhlobo ezisetshenziswa kakhulu zanamuhla zisetshenziselwa ukusiza ukwandisa amathuba okubamba izinhlanzi ezinkulu.
Ngaphezu kwezipuni, ama-pikes avame ukubanjwa ngentambo ephilayo noma efile. Ngasikhathi sinye, entwasahlobo, ehlobo, ekwindla nasebusika, abadobi basebenzisa izindlela ezihluke ngokuphelele zokudoba. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi, kuye ngesizini, inhlanzi ishintsha "indawo yokuhlala" yayo.
Lo mbhalo uzokwethula amacala asemthethweni wokubamba ipiki enkulu kunazo zonke emlandweni. By the way, naka ezinye izindatshana ezivela esigabeni esithi "The most in the world".
I-pike enkulu kunazo zonke
Bambalwa abantu abalaziyo iqiniso lokuthi ipiki elinzima kakhulu labanjwa ngo-1497.
I-pike yayineminyaka engaba ngu-270 ubudala. Abadobi bafinyelela kulesi siphetho, bethembele emininingwaneni yendandatho, eyabekwa ezinhlanzini ngo-1230 ngoku-oda kukaFrederick 2.
Ubude be-pike enkulu kunazo zonke futhi endala ifinyelele ku-5.7 m, ngesisindo esingu-140 kg. Ngokomlando, izikali zakhe zazimhlophe qwa, ngoba ngaleso sikhathi wayelahlekelwe i-pigment ehambisanayo.
Amathambo epiki anikelwe emnyuziyamu eJalimane. Kodwa-ke, ochwepheshe besimanje sebethole ukuthi ibinama-vertebrae ezinhlobo ezahlukene zepike, okukhombise ukuthi bekungumbombayi.
Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi ososayensi bayangabaza ukuthi i-pike ingaphila impilo ende kangako, ngoba ubudala obukhulu bezinhlanzi abudluli eminyakeni engama-25-30.
Amaqiniso athakazelisayo ngamaphikisi amakhulu kakhulu
- I-pike enkulu yokuqala ebhaliswe ngokusemthethweni eRussia Federation yabanjwa ngo-1930. Isisindo sayo sasingu-35 kg.
- Ngo-1957, abadobi baseMelika babamba iMuskinong enesisindo esingama-32 kg eMfuleni iSt. Lawrence (eNew York).
- I-pike ejwayelekile kunazo zonke nayo yabanjwa ngabadobi baseMelika. Ngo-1940, bathola inhlanzi engama-25-kg emanzini, eyamukelwa njenge-pike enkulu kunazo zonke emlandweni.
- Irekhodi ligcinwe ezinqolobaneni zokugcina umlando, okushiwo ukuthi ngekhulu le-17 inhlanzi eyabanjwa ngamamitha ayi-9 ubude emanzini eVolga, enesisindo samathani ama-2. Ososayensi bayangabaza ngalo mbhalo, bekholelwa ukuthi ikhophi elinjalo belingeke nje libe khona.
- Iphiki lesifazane likwazi ukubeka amaqanda asukela ku-17,000 kuya ku-215,000.
