I-buffalo emnyama ingabizwa ngokuphepha ngokuthi ummeli omkhulu kunabo bonke izinkunzi.
Unombukiso ongakhohlwayo, umlingiswa othize, kungaba kokubili engozini futhi engozini.
Esihlokweni sethu sizochaza ngokuningiliziwe ngalesi silwane esikhulu nesingavamile.
Ukubukeka
Isisindo samaduna ezinkomo ze-Afrika kusukela ku-950 kuya ku-1200 kg. Insikazi inesisindo esincane kakhulu - cishe 750 kg.
Kubalulekile! Inyosi yase-Afrika yisilwane esinolaka futhi esingenakulinganiswa. Uma uhlangana nenkunzi, ungenzi ukunyakaza okungazelelwe, futhi uma kungenzeka kungenzeka kancane kancane uhambe kuyo, hhayi ukulahlekelwa umbono.
Izimpondo zesilwane zifana nomnsalo wezemidlalo wokudubula. Ububanzi bawo buba ngu-35 cm. Ekuqaleni ziboshwe ezinhlangothini, emva kwalokho zikhothama futhi zinyuka. Ngenxa yalokho, kwakha isihlangu esinamandla, okuvumela umuntu ukuba abize ebunzini lenkomo indawo enamandla kakhulu emzimbeni wayo. 
Ukuphakama kwenkunzi endala kungaba ngu-2 m. Ubukhulu besilinganiso sesikhumba bungaphezu kuka-2 cm. Ngenxa yalolu hlu, izici zangaphandle azizesabi isilwane. Phezu kwesikhumba kukhona ijazi elimnyama lombala omnyama - kungaba grey noma kumnyama. Abanye besifazane bangase babe nombala obomvu wengubo.
Le nkunzi iye yahlukanisa amehlo eduze nethanga elingaphambili, ngokuvamile likhala. Ngeshwa, ngenxa yalesi sizathu, izinambuzane ezihlukahlukene, izinambuzane namaqanda abo zivela ezinhlathini ezinomthunzi eduze kwamehlo.
Inkunzi yase-Afrika inomqondo omuhle, kodwa ayikwazi ukuziqhayisa ngamehlo akhe. 
Ikhanda liphansi kancane kunomzimba wonke, ingxenye yalo ephezulu igubha ngomugqa ophansi ngemuva. Isilwane sinemilenze yangaphambili enamandla, engemuva ibuthakathaka kancane.
I-Subspecies
Namuhla emvelweni ungathola ama-subspecies alandelayo enkunzi yase-Afrika:
- I-Cape;
- I-Nile;
- esincane (obomvu);
- intaba;
- Sudanese.
Eminyakeni eminingi edlule inani le-subspecies lafinyelela ku-90, kodwa kuphela labo abalwe ngenhla basinda ezikhathini zethu.
Funda kabanzi mayelana nezinhlobo zezinkumbi, ikakhulukazi, i-Asian buffalo.
Indawo yokusatshalaliswa nokuhlala
Iningi lezinkunzi ezinzima kakhulu zitholakala ezindaweni ezifudumele zase-Afrika: amahlathi, ama-savannas, izintaba, eningizimu yeSahara. Bakhetha izindawo lapho kunezindawo eziningi zamanzi namadlelo ezinotshani obukhulu. Abafuni ukuhlala eduze kwabantu.
Indawo yokusabalalisa ye-subspecies ehlukile ihlukile. Isibonelo, ama-buffalo amancane akhetha izindawo ezinkuni zaseNtshonalanga ne-Central Africa. Ama-subspecies aseSudan angatholakala entshonalanga yezwekazi, ngokuqondile - eCameroon.
Uyazi? Inyosi yase-Afrika ingenye yezilwane ezinhlanu eziyingozi kakhulu futhi ihambisana nezibindi, izingwe, amahhhh kanye nezindlovu.
Ama-savannas, asempumalanga naseningizimu yezwekazi, afaneleka kakhulu eKapa, kanti ama-subspecies aseNayile akhethe iSudan, i-Ethiopia, iCongo, i-Uganda, iCentral Africa ngezindawo zazo. I-subspecies yezintaba itholakala empumalanga ye-Afrika. 
Ngaphezu kwalokho, inkunzi emnyama ingacatshangelwa endaweni yokugcina noma i-zoo.
Bheka futhi: Okuwukuthakazelisa kakhulu izinkomo
Indlela yokuphila, intukuthelo nemikhuba
Izinkunzi ezimnyama zinomqondo ohlukumezayo futhi ziziphathe kahle, zihlala ngamaqembu. Uma izilwane zihlala endaweni evulekile, leli qembu linamakhanda angaba ngu-30, uma ehlathini - kufika ku-10. Uma isomiso sitholakala, amaqembu ahlangana ndawonye. Imfuyo enjalo ingakwazi ukubala abantu abangamakhulu amaningana.
Kunezinhlobo eziningi zezinkomo:
- Ixubile. Kufaka izinkunzi ezindala, abesifazane namathole. Ngokusondela eningizimu emhlambini wezimvu, izilwane ezincane kakhulu zikhona.
- Endala. Imfuyo enjalo ngokuvamile iqukethe kuphela izinkunzi ezindala, ezineminyaka engaphezu kwengu-12 ubudala.
- Intsha. Ukwakhiwa kwaleli qembu - ibhubhe eneminyaka engama-4-5.
I-Herd inombuso ocacile. Ama-buffalo amadala ngokuvamile atholakale eceleni komjikelezo wayo, ovikela iqembu futhi azise abantu ngabanye ngosongo. Ngokushesha nje lapho kukhona ingozi, izilwane ngokushesha zibopha ndawonye, ngaleyo ndlela zivikela abesifazane namathole. Ezimweni eziphuthumayo, izinkunzi zikwazi ukugijima ngesivinini esingama-57 km / h. 
Izinyosi zase-Afrika ziningi kakhulu ebusuku. Ebusuku, bayadla, futhi emini, lapho izinga lokushisa lomoya liphakeme kakhulu, izilwane zihamba ezihlahleni ezinomthunzi noma odakeni olusogwini.
Kubalulekile! Amaphesenti angama-16% ama-black beef abathwala isifo sofuba, ngakho abalimi kudingeka baqinisekise ukuthi izinkunzi azifiki eduze nezilwane ezifuywayo.
Kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi izinkunzi ze-Afrika azizithandi kakhulu indawo nezinye izilwane nezinyoni, ngaphandle kwaphela ukuhudula - izinyoni, ezibizwa nangokuthi ama-buffalo starlings. Lezi zilwane zithinteka kakhulu kulezi zilwane ezinkulu, ezikhumbeni zazo ezithola ukudla kwazo - izinambuzane kanye nezibungu zazo. 
Ngesikhathi se-"rut" abesilisa bangakwazi ukulwa: bahlaselwa, bangakwazi ukuphula izimpondo, kodwa imbongolo emnyama ngeke ibulale isisulu.
Yini edla endle
Isisekelo sokudla sezinyosi zasendle kungukudla kwemifino. Izilwane zikhetha izinhlobo ezithile zamakhambi azidla kuwo wonke unyaka. Ngisho noma kukhona inqwaba yezinto eziphilayo ezizungezile, izinkunzi ezimnyama zizohamba ziyofuna ama-herbs awo ayizintandokazi. Bakhetha ama-juicy, abacebile nge-fibre nezitshalo ezikhulayo ezindaweni ezisogwini. Kodwa izihlahla abazithandayo - zakha u-5% kuphela wokudla kwesilwane. 
Emahoreni angu-24 imbongolo yase-Afrika kufanele idle ama-herbs okungenani u-2% ubukhulu bayo. Uma iphesenti ingaphansi, le nkunzi izolahlekelwa isisindo ngokushesha. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-buffalo idinga ukuphuza amanzi amaningi - 30-40 amalitha ngosuku.
Kuyathakazelisa ukufunda mayelana nabamele izinkunzi zasendle: zebu, watusi.
Ukuzala
Abesifazane bavuthiwe ngokocansi beneminyaka engama-3 ubudala, abesilisa - eminyakeni emihlanu. Kusukela ngoMashi kuya ezinsukwini zokugcina zikaMeyi izilwane zihlala isikhathi sokuvuna. Abesilisa ngalesi sikhathi bahlukaniswa ngokushisa, kodwa lokhu kuziphatha kunenkcazelo yayo-badinga ukuncintisana nezinye izinkunzi zezinsikazi.
Isikhathi sokubeletha sikaBuffalo siyizinyanga ezingu-10-11. Ngesikhathi sokuzalwa, isisindo sethole singahluka kusuka ku-40 kuya ku-60 kg. Nsuku zonke isisindo saso sanda, ngoba emahoreni angu-24 ithola cishe amalitha amahlanu obisi. Ngenyanga eyi-1, izilwane ezincane zingase zibizwa ngokuthi zizimele, ziqala ukudla ukudla okutshala, njengabantu abadala. Endle, izinkumbi zase-Afrika zihlala iminyaka engu-15-16, kanti lezo zinkunzi ezitholakala ezindaweni zokugcina futhi zihlale ziqondiswa abantu zingahlala iminyaka engama-30. 
Isimo sabantu kanye nesondlo
Izinkunzi ezimnyama, njengazo zonke izilwane, zinezitha. Ngaphezu kwalokho, indoda idlala indima ebalulekile empilweni yezinkumbi.
Izitha zemvelo emvelweni
Ukuhlala ezinhlathini zasendle, izinhlanzi zase-Afrika zinezitha ezimbalwa. Ngokuvame ukuhlupheka kwabo izingonyama, kodwa lezi zilwane ezidliwayo azikwazi njalo ukubhekana nezinkunzi. Inyosi iqala ukusebenzisa izimpondo zayo, futhi yisikhali esiyingozi esingaqeda kalula isisu sesilwane. Kungenxa yalesi sizathu ukuthi izingonyama zikhetha ukuhlasela amathole alwa emhlambini. Kodwa-ke, uma enye yezinkukhu ibona ukuhlaselwa kwethole, umhlambi wonke uzokusheshisa ukusiza ingane. Amathole angase ahlaselwe. izingwe, ama-cheetah namafiya atholakala.
Ngaphandle kwezitha ezinkulu zemvelo, ukuphazamiseka kumabhodlela amnyama kuhanjiswa yizimbungulu ezincane ezondla igazi. Futhi nakuba izilwane zinesikhumba esinyene, izimpungushe kanye namakhansela namanje zichitha ukuphila kwazo. 
Indoda nezinyosi
Ngeshwa, umuntu angaba nethonya elibi emphakathini wabhubhe. Isibonelo, eSerengeti, lapho eziningi zalezi zilwane zazihlala khona, kusukela ngo-1969 kuya ku-1990 inani labantu ngabanye lahlehla kusuka ku-65 kuya kwezingu-16 eziyinkulungwane ngenxa yokudoba. Esikhathini sethu, isimo, ngenhlanhla, siye sazinza.
Uyazi? Wonke ama-buffalo amnyama ahlushwa yi-myopia, kodwa amehlo ampofu awavimbeli ukuba angazizwa ngendlela yezitha, njengoba ezwa kahle futhi ezwa iphunga.
Ngokuvamile, izinkunzi zizama ukuhlukanisa nabantu, kodwa kwezinye izindawo zase-Afrika zingase ziphele eduze kwamakhaya abantu. Ezimweni ezinjengaleyo, umuntu uvele ebhubhise izilwane, aziphathe njengezinambuzane ezithatha izinsika.
Ividiyo: ibhotela lase-Afrika
I-African buffalo ebomvu yisilwane esinamandla ukuthi namuhla sidinga ukuvikelwa komuntu. Kubalulekile ukuzama ukuqaliswa kwezinyathelo zokuvikelwa kwemvelo ukuze abantu balezi zilwane eziqinile bangapheli.
