ʻO nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo: nā ʻike a me nā hiʻohiʻona

Hoʻolaha nui ʻia nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo ma waena o nā pōpoki pedigreed a me outbred. He aha kā lākou mea huna?

Nui ka poʻe i makemake i kēia kala: ke hoʻonohonoho like ʻia, hāʻawi ke kumu i ka pōpoki i kahi hiʻohiʻona koʻikoʻi a hanohano, me he mea lā e ʻaʻahu ana ʻo ia i kahi tuxedo a me kahi mask. Aia kekahi mau ʻano like ʻole o kēia kala: ʻike ʻia nā kuʻemaka kaumaha e like me ka hale ma ka ʻāʻī keʻokeʻo. ʻO ka pōpoki keʻokeʻo loa me ka huelo ʻeleʻele a i ʻole ka ihu he ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo hoʻi.

He wahi genetics

Loaʻa i nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo ka gene no ke kiko keʻokeʻo (piebald). Me ka hele ʻole ʻana i nā kikoʻī, hiki iā mākou ke wehewehe i kāna hana penei: i ka wā o ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka embryo, ua hoʻolōʻihi kēia ʻano i ka neʻe ʻana o nā cell e hoʻopuka ai i ka melanin ʻeleʻele, a pēlā e hoʻopau ai i ka pigmentation ma kekahi mau wahi o ke kino. Hoʻoholo nui ʻia ka symmetry o ke kumu ma ke ʻano maʻamau a ma muli o nā kumu he nui. Akā ʻo ka māhele o ke kala keʻokeʻo e pili pono ana i ka hui ʻana o nā genes i loaʻa i ka pipi ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo mai kona mau mākua.

Nā ʻano kala

I nā kala ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo, hiki ke ʻike ʻia kekahi mau subspecies:

• ʻO Bicolor

ʻO ka ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo bicolor ma kahi o ka hapakolu a i ʻole ka hapalua i uhi ʻia me ka huluhulu keʻokeʻo. He ʻeleʻele ke poʻo, ke kua a me ka huelo, a keʻokeʻo ke kola ma ka ʻāʻī, ka huinakolu ma ka waha, ka umauma, ka ʻōpū. Aia i kēia subspecies ka "pōkole i loko o kahi tuxedo" - nā pōpoki tuxedo.

• Harlequin

Ua kapa ʻia kēia ʻano kala ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo ma muli o ke ʻano o ka Italian commedia dell'arte, i ʻike ʻia no kāna ʻaʻahu patchwork waihoʻoluʻu. Pono ka ʻaʻahu o ka pōpoki harlequin ma kahi o 50% keʻokeʻo a ʻoi aku ka nui o ʻelima hapaono. He keʻokeʻo ka umauma, nā wāwae a me ka ʻāʻī, a ʻeleʻele loa ka huelo. Pono kekahi mau kiko ʻeleʻele i wehewehe ʻia ma ke poʻo a me ke kino.

• van

ʻO nā holoholona waihoʻoluʻu Van he pōpoki keʻokeʻo me nā kiko ʻeleʻele liʻiliʻi. ʻO nā koi no ka wahi o nā kiko he koʻikoʻi: pono e loaʻa i ʻelua mau wahi ʻeleʻele ma ka muzzle a i ʻole ma nā pepeiao, hoʻokahi ma ka huelo a me ka ʻāʻī. Ua ʻae ʻia mai hoʻokahi a ʻekolu mau kiko ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe o ke kino. 

• Keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo koena

Loaʻa kēia i nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele me nā wāwae keʻokeʻo, "medallions" ma ka umauma, nā wahi liʻiliʻi ma ka ʻōpū a i ʻole ka ʻāʻī, a me nā lauoho keʻokeʻo kaʻawale. No nā pōpoki maʻemaʻe, ʻaʻole i hōʻemi kēia kala i ka maʻamau, akā ʻaʻole hiki ke hōʻemi i ke aloha o nā mea nona kā lākou mau holoholona!

ʻEleʻele a keʻokeʻo nā pua puaʻa

Manaʻo nui ʻia he ʻokoʻa nā pōpoki o ka "noble" i ka ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo. Akā ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, aia kekahi mau ʻano pua nona nā ʻano like ʻole o kēia kala. No ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi holoholona monochrome me kahi pedigree, hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā i kēia mau ʻano:

• ʻO Shorthair Pelekane.
• Pelekia.
• Maine Coon
• Kanaka Sphinx.
• Munchkin.
• Rex a pau.
• Siberian (kakaʻikahi kala).
• ʻO Angora (ke kala ʻole).

No ka holomua ma nā hōʻikeʻike, pono nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo i ke ʻano kikoʻī pololei, ʻaʻole maʻalahi ke loaʻa i ka wā hānau. No nā hōʻike, pono ʻoe e koho i kahi pipi me kahi kala symmetrical. I ka manawa like, mai poina e pili ana i nā hiʻohiʻona o nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole e koho ai i ka mea kūpono loa.

Nā Mea Hoʻohanohano

ʻO nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo "hoʻomālamalama" i nā wahi ākea. Eia kekahi mau ʻike hoihoi i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia:

• Ua komo ka pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo ʻo Merlin mai ʻEnelani i ka Guinness Book of Records no ka leo nui loa - ua hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻo ia ma kahi o 68 decibels.
• ʻO nā mea nona nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo he mau mea kaulana e like me Isaac Newton, William Shakespeare a me Ludwig van Beethoven.
• ʻO kekahi o nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo kaulana loa ʻo Palmerston, he ʻiole ma ka British Foreign Office nāna i mālama i kāna moʻokāki Twitter ponoʻī a hakakā me Larry ka pōpoki mai ka hale o ke kuhina nui. He mea kaumaha, ua hoʻomaha ʻo Palmerston i ka makahiki 2020, me ka waiho ʻana i kahi leka haʻalele me nā paw paw ma kahi o kahi pūlima.

Nā pōpoki ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo: ʻano

Manaʻo ʻia ua lawe nā pōpoki monochrome i nā hiʻohiʻona maikaʻi loa mai nā ʻohana ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo. He mālie a aloha lākou, akā i ka manawa like ke kūʻokoʻa a me ka pāʻani. ʻOiaʻiʻo paha kēia, hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā i kāu ʻike ponoʻī ma ka lawe ʻana i kahi holoholona me kēia kala. ʻO nā ʻatikala e pili ana i nā inoa no kahi pipi ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo a pehea e hoʻomākaukau ai no kona hōʻea ʻana i ka hale e kōkua iā ʻoe e hālāwai me kāu hoa huluhulu hou me ka mākaukau piha.

E nānā i kekahi:

• Lawe i ka popoki makua
• He aha ka popoki maikaʻi loa e loaʻa i loko o ke keʻena?
• ʻEono mau pua puaʻa maikaʻi loa
• Hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā maiuu: pehea e hoʻokaʻawale ai i kahi Pelekane mai kahi pipi maʻamau
