Dera lakutali komanso losangalatsa la Torres Strait, lomwe lili pakati pa New Guinea ndi Queensland, ku Australia, lakhala lodzaza ndi nthano ndi nthano. Zina mwa nthano zochititsa chidwi zomwe zakopa anthu am'deralo komanso okonda masewerawa ndizovuta za kanyama kakang'ono kotchedwa Kusa Kap. Anati ali ndi mapiko odabwitsa otalika mpaka 22, cholengedwa chobisika ichi chachita chidwi komanso kudabwitsa omwe adakumana nacho. Ndiye, kodi zoona zake n’zotani pa nthano ya lipenga lalikulu la ku New Guinea?
Chiyambi cha nthano ya Kusa Kap
Kutchulidwa koyamba kwa Kusa Kap kungayambike kwa katswiri wazachilengedwe wazaka za m'ma 18 Luigi d'Albertis, yemwe adatchulidwa ndi Karl Shuker m'buku lake la 2003 "Zilombo Zobisala Kwa Anthu” patsamba 168. Pofufuza mtsinje wa Torres Strait, d’Albertis anakumana ndi anthu a m’derali amene ankanena za nyanga yaikulu kwambiri ya m’derali.
Malinga ndi zimene ananena, mbalame yochititsa chidwi imeneyi inali ndi mapiko aatali mamita 16 mpaka 22 kuposa mitundu ina iliyonse yodziwika bwino ya mbalame zinazake, kuphatikizapo mbalame zotchedwa hornbill. hornbill wamkulu waku India ndi ng'ombe ya rhinoceros. Mbalameyi inkaganiza kuti imatha kunyamula zikhadabo zake zoopsa kwambiri ndipo inachititsa kuti mbalameyi ikhale yodabwitsa kwambiri. Anthu a m’derali ananena kuti phokoso la mapiko ake pouluka linali ngati mkokomo wa phokoso la injini ya nthunzi, ndipo zimenezi zimachititsa kuti chilombo chodabwitsachi chikhale chodabwitsa kwambiri. M'nthano zawo, mbadwa zimatcha "Kusa Kap".
Kukumana kwa hornbill yayikulu kapena Kusa Kap kudatchulidwa Chilengedwe, (Nov. 25, 1875), V. 13, p. 76:
Kalata yosangalatsa imapezeka mu Daily News dzulo kuchokera kwa Bambo Smithurst, injiniya wa sitima yapamadzi yomwe inayenda ulendo wopita kumtsinje wa Baxter womwe unangopezeka kumene ku New Guinea, womwe umatchulidwa mu adiresi ya Sir Henry Rawlinson ku Geographical Society sabata yatha. Mtsinjewu ukuwoneka ngati wokongola kwambiri, ndipo mwachiwonekere ukhoza kuyenda panyanja mtunda wautali pakati pa dziko. Ofufuzawo adapeza kuti mabankiwo amakhala makamaka ndi madambo a mangrove, komabe, chakumapeto kwa ulendowo, mabanki adongo okhala ndi Eucalyptus globulus adapezeka. Pafupifupi mbadwa zonse zidawonedwa, ngakhale kuti nthawi zambiri pamakhala zizindikiro zakuti ali pafupi. Bambo Smithurst amatanthauza mbalame yodabwitsa kwambiri, yomwe, monga momwe tikudziwira, sinafotokozedwe mpaka pano. Anthu a m’dzikoli amati amatha kuuluka ndi dugong, kangaroo, kapena kamba wamkulu. Bambo Smithurst akufotokoza kuti anaona ndi kuwombera chitsanzo cha nyama yodabwitsayi, ndikuti “phokoso lomwe linkachitika chifukwa cha kuombetsa kwa mapiko ake linali ngati phokoso la locomotive yokoka sitima yaitali pang’onopang’ono.” Iye ananena kuti “mapikowo ankaoneka ngati mamita pafupifupi 30 kapena 7 kudutsa mapiko ake, thupi lake linali loderapo, chifuwa choyera, khosi lalitali, mlomo wake wautali komanso wowongoka.” M’dongo lolimba la m’mphepete mwa mtsinjewo Bambo Smithurst ananena kuti anaona mapazi a nyama yaikulu, imene “anaitenga ngati njati kapena ng’ombe yam’tchire,” koma sanaone zizindikiro za nyamayo. Mawu awa ndi odabwitsa kwambiri, ndipo tisanawatsimikizire kuti tikuyenera kuyembekezera kutulutsidwa kwa mbiri yaulendo wapamadzi. Kusonkhanitsa kokongola kwambiri kwa miyala, miyala, mbalame, tizilombo, zomera, moss, ndi ma orchids zapangidwa, zomwe zidzaperekedwa kwa katswiri wa zachilengedwe kuti aganizire. Masiku a kuyankhulana kwa Bambo Smithurst akuchokera pa August XNUMX mpaka Sept. XNUMX. -Chilengedwe, (Nov. 25, 1875), V. 13, p. 76 .
The cryptid giant hornbill: Zoona kapena zopeka?
Ngakhale kuti nkhani za Kusa Kap zingawoneke ngati zosangalatsa, zayambitsa mikangano pakati pa ofufuza ndi okonda. Ena amatsutsa kuti kuona nyanga zazikuluzikulu kungakhale kutanthauzira molakwa kapena kukokomeza, popeza kuyerekezera kukula kwa mitundu yachilendo kungakhale kovuta. Mwachitsanzo, oyang'anira malo osungiramo nyama aona kuti mboni nthawi zambiri zimangoyerekeza kukula kwa zolengedwa zachilendo. Kusiyana kumeneku pakuyerekeza kukula kumatha kufotokozera chifukwa chomwe mapiko a Kusa Kap adanenedwa m'zidziwitso zoyambirira adatsika kuchokera ku 22 mapazi mpaka 16-18 mapazi pomwe mlenje wodziwa bwino adayesa kuwombera.
Identity ya Kusa Kap
Kuti tiwunikire za mtundu wa Kusa Kap, ndikofunikira kuganizira zamitundu ina ya mbalame zomwe zimakhala mderali. Mtundu wina womwe umagwirizanitsidwa ndi nthanoyi ndi nyanga yofiira. Mbalame zazikuluzikuluzi, zomwe zimadziwika ndi kulira kwake mwapadera zikamauluka, zimaonedwa kuti zikugwira ntchito yolanda dugong. Makhalidwe a nyanga yofiira, kuphatikizapo maonekedwe ake, apangitsa ofufuza ena, kuphatikizapo AC Haddon, kuganiza kuti akhoza kukhala kudzoza kumbuyo kwa nthano ya Kusa Kap. Komabe, kufufuza kwina ndi kusanthula kumafunika kutsimikizira lingaliro ili.
Nkhani ya Kaudab ndi Bakar
Mkati mwa nthano yochititsa chidwi ya Kusa Kap muli nkhani yomvetsa chisoni ya chikondi, nsanje, ndi chiwombolo. Nkhaniyi ikukhudza Kaudab, mlenje waluso wakupha ndumba, ndi mkazi wake wokongola, Bakar. Moyo wawo wopusa umasintha mosayembekezereka pamene Giz, mzimu wachikazi wochenjera, umakhala ndi nsanje ndikuyamba kuwononga chisangalalo chawo. Giz, dogai yemwe ali ndi luso losintha mawonekedwe, amakopa Bakar pansi pamadzi ndikumusiya pachilumba cha Kusar.
Ali yekhayekha, Bakar anapulumuka pachilumbachi podya mbewu za kusa. Mozizwitsa, iye akukhala ndi pakati nabala cholengedwa chochititsa chidwi—mwana wa chiwombankhanga. Bakar amatcha mbalameyo Kusa Kap, pambuyo pa mbewu zomwe zidathandizira kwambiri pathupi lake. Ndi chisamaliro chodzipereka cha Bakar, Kusa Kap amakula kukhala cholengedwa chowoneka bwino chokhala ndi mphamvu komanso mapiko otambasuka kuti achite zodabwitsa.
Zochita za ngwazi za Kusa Kap
Pamene Kusa Kap akukula, akuyamba zochitika zingapo zomwe zimayesa luso lake ndikumufikitsa pafupi ndi kukumananso ndi Bakar ndi Kaudab. Kuchokera pakukwera mpaka pamwamba kwambiri ndikugwira ma dugong mpaka kupereka zofunikira kuti amayi ake apulumuke, zochita za ngwazi za Kusa Kap zikuwonetsa kukhulupirika ndi kutsimikiza mtima kwake. Motsogozedwa ndi chikondi chosagwedera kwa banja lake, mzimu wosagwedezeka wa Kusa Kap umamutsogolera kupambana pamavuto.
Udindo wa Giz mu nthano
Giz, dogai wankhanza yemwe amabwezera ku Kaudab ndi Bakar, akuwonjezera gawo lochititsa chidwi ku nthano ya Kusa Kap. Nsanje ndi chikhumbo chake cha Kaudab zimamupangitsa kuti azichita zinthu monyanyira, zomwe zimapangitsa kuti banjali lilekanitsidwe. Komabe, kuchita chilungamo ndi kubwezera kwa Kusa Kap kumathetsa ulamuliro wachigawenga wa Giz. Pomugwira ndikumumasula kutali ndi Dauan, Kusa Kap amaonetsetsa kuti Giz akukumana ndi kutha kwake, kusandulika kukhala Dogail Malu, nyanja ya dogai.
Kusa Kap kugwirizana ndi New Guinea
Ngakhale nthano ya Kusa Kap imazungulira dera la Torres Strait, pali kufanana kochititsa chidwi komwe kumapezeka ku New Guinea. Pamene Luigi d'Albertis akufotokoza nthano ya mbalame yaikuluyi, yomwe imakhala pafupi ndi mtsinje wa Mai Kusa. Zofanana ndi nthano ya Kusa Kap ndizosatsutsika, zomwe zikuwonetsa kulumikizana komwe kungachitike pakati pa awiriwa. Kufufuza kowonjezereka kwa nkhanizi kungapereke chidziŵitso chofunika kwambiri ponena za chiyambi ndi chikhalidwe cha zolengedwa zazikuluzikulu za mbalamezi.
Chidwi ndi "pterosaurs amoyo"
Kukopa kwa nthano ya Kusa Kap kumakulitsidwanso ndi mgwirizano wake ndi ma pterosaur amoyo. M'nkhani zina ndi zithunzi, Kusa Kap amawonetsedwa ngati mbalame yokhala ndi mapiko okhala ndi nthenga ndi mchira wa nthenga, zomwe zimakumbukira ma pterosaur akale. Kugwirizana kumeneku pakati pa Kusa Kap ndi pterosaurs kumawonjezera malingaliro ndikuwonjezera chidwi chopitilira ndi zolengedwa zopeka izi.
malingaliro Final
Chinsinsi cha lipenga lalikulu la ku New Guinea, lomwe limadziwika kuti Kusa Kap, likupitilirabe kukopa anthu padziko lonse lapansi. Kuchokera pakukula kwake kodabwitsa komanso kuthekera kwake konyamula ma dugong kuti agwirizane ndi nthano zakale komanso nthano zakale, Kusa Kap imayimira umboni wa zodabwitsa zomwe zili padziko lapansi. Ngakhale kuti chowonadi cha nthanoyi sichingakhale chovuta, nthano ndi nkhani zozungulira Kusa Kap zimatikumbutsa za mphamvu yosatha ya nthano ndi kukopa kosatha kwa zosadziwika.
Pambuyo powerenga za nthano yodabwitsa ya Kusa Kap, werengani za Kongamato - pterosaur wamoyo ku Congo?
