Ukuqonda iigorila
Iigorila, njengoko sisazi, zizilwanyana ezanyisayo ezizezosapho lweHominidae, olukwabandakanya nabantu. Zizilwanyana ezikrelekrele kakhulu, zinobuchule obuphambili bokuqonda kunye neemvakalelo. Iigorila zinesakhiwo esintsonkothileyo sentlalo, esikhokelwa yindoda elawulayo, kwaye zihlala ngokwamaqela anokwahluka ukusuka kwi-5 ukuya kuma-30 abantu.
Iigorila zichitha ixesha elininzi zifuna ukutya, kwaye ukutya kwazo zizityalo, nangona zitya izinambuzane. Batya ifayibha eninzi kwaye badinga ibhaktheriya ethile kwinkqubo yabo yokugaya ukuze bayiphule. Kulapho inkunkuma idlala khona.
Coprophagy kwiigorila
Njengoko kukhankanyiwe ngasentla, i-coprophagy sisenzo sokutya ilindle likabani. Kwimeko yeegorila, le ndlela yokuziphatha inenjongo ethile kakhulu: ukubuyisela izondlo ezilahlekileyo.
Iigorila zii-hindgut fermenters, oku kuthetha ukuba ukuvutshelwa kokutya okuninzi kwenzeka emathunjini akho amakhulu kunye nekholoni. Ngenxa yolu hlobo lwe-anatomical kunye ne-physiological peculiarity, inxalenye ebalulekileyo yezondlo ayifuntshwa ngexesha lokuqala lokutya kwindlela yokugaya. Ngokutya inkunkuma yabo, iigorila zinokufumana izondlo ezongezelelweyo ezilahlekileyo kwinyathelo lokuqala.
Izibonelelo zezondlo ze-coprophagy
Enye yeenzuzo eziphambili ze-coprophagy kwiigorila kukubuyisela i-vitamin B12, isondlo esibalulekileyo esiveliswa emathunjini amakhulu ngexesha lokuqhekeka kwefiber. Ngokutya inkunkuma yazo, iigorila zinokufumana ivithamin B12 ngaphezulu kunokuba zinokufunxa ekutyeni kwazo ngokucolwa kwesiqhelo.
Ukongeza kwivithamin B12, i-coprophagy kwiigorila inokubanika nomthombo obalulekileyo weprotheyini. Oku kunokuba luncedo ngakumbi ngamaxesha okunqongophala kokutya xa imithombo eqhelekileyo yeprotini isenokunqongophala.
Ukuziphatha kweegorila xa kutyiwa ilindle
Iigorila zidla ngokutya inkunkuma yazo kusasa, kwaye le ndlela yokuziphatha inokwahluka ngokuxhomekeke kumntu kunye nokufumaneka kokunye ukutya. Yinto yokuziphatha enqabileyo kwaye ibonwa ngakumbi ekuthinjweni kunasendle.
Iingqwalasela zezempilo
Nangona i-coprophagy inokuba luncedo kwiigorila malunga nokubuyiswa kwesondlo, kunokubakho nokungalunganga. Umzekelo, ukusetyenziswa kwelindle kunokunyusa umngcipheko wosulelo lwe-parasite. Noko ke, kubalulekile ukuba kuqatshelwe ukuba iigorila endle zisesichengeni inani lendalo izifunxi-gazi kunye nezifo, kwaye baye baphuhlisa amajoni omzimba iqhelaniswe kakuhle kule meko.
Ukugxininiswa ngokulula, into enokuba yinto engaqondakaliyo okanye engathandekiyo kuthi, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo sisicwangciso esisebenzayo sokusinda kunye nendalo yezi primates zinomtsalane. Umahluko omkhulu kwindlela esiziphethe ngayo kunye nokutya sisikhumbuzo sokwahlukana okumangalisayo kunye nokuguquguquka kobomi kwiplanethi yethu.
