Ezinye zezilwane ezifuywayo ezingenakuzithoba ziyizingulube. Ukuzigcina endlini akubangeli inkathazo enkulu, ngisho nengane ingabanakekela. Izingulube azikho inkinga ukuhambisana nanoma yiziphi izilwane ezifuywayo, futhi azidingi isikhala esiningi.
Imithetho yokunakekela ama-turtles
Ekhaya, ngokunakekelwa okufanele nokuhambisana nayo yonke imithetho yokuqukethwe, isikhathi sokuphila se- tortoise yomhlaba singase sibe iminyaka engaphezu kwekhulu. Ngaphambi kokuba uqale isilwane, kudingeka ulungiselele indawo yokuhlala, kufanele kube yindawo evulekile lapho isilwane singahamba khona ngokukhululekile. Ubukhulu be-terrarium kufanele buvumele ukufaka isitsha samanzi kuwo, ukuze noma nini i-turtle ingakwazi ukugeza.
Ukulindeleka kokuphila kwama-turtles
Bangaki abantu abaphethe i-turtle ekhaya, ngokuqondile kuxhomeke endaweni yokuhlala, bahlomele yona, kodwa okubaluleke kakhulu ekudleni isilwane sondliwa. Ukudla kwemifino kuyisithako esiyinhloko ekudleni kwe-tortle, yikuphi imifino, amaqabunga e-dandelion, olwandle olwandle. Ngezinye izikhathi, hhayi ngaphezu kwesisodwa ngesonto, unganika ukudla kwamaprotheni namavithamini.
Iminyaka emingaki iqhutha lomhlaba lihlala? Ukuphila kwezilwane ezigcinwe ekhaya kuhluke kakhulu ngokuphila kwesikhathi sezilwane eziphila emvelweni.
I-tortoise yaseMedithera, (lezi zinhlobo zivame ukugcinwa ekhaya), zingaphila iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-40, ngokungabikho kokucindezeleka nokutholakala kokudla okuhlukahlukene. Ubufakazi obubhalwe ngesikhuni obuphila iminyaka engu-152 bulotshwe, nakuba ososayensi bevuma ukuthi ngesimo sokuphila isiphuphu singaphila iminyaka engaba ngu-300. Futhi, isikhathi sokuphila samagundane sithinteka ngobukhulu bawo: i-tortle enkulu, isikhathi eside singaphila.
