Abashukela abesilisa abano-sugar basendaweni ecacile ephezulu yekhanda labo elibonakala sengathi bafinyelela ekuvuthweni ngokobulili (iminyaka yale nto iyashintsha, kodwa ngokuvamile ivame ezinyangeni ezingu-12-15 ezindala kubantu besilisa). Le ndawo, okuyi-diamond efana ne-diamond ekhoneni, empeleni iyiphunga elimnandi. Umfana wesilisa usebenzisa lesi sici sephunga ukuze abheke umngane wakhe wesifazane, inzalo yakhe, nensimu yakhe.
I-Sugar Glider Anatomy
I- fly glider isilisa inezicathulo ezinomsoco ezintathu: enye ekhanda lakhe, eyesibili esifubeni sayo (okungase kubonakale njengendawo encane ye-bald noma kungabangela ubuso ukuba bukhanyiswe kancane endaweni endaweni yephunga elimnandi), futhi okwesithathu endaweni yesisu (eceleni kwe-cloaca).
Insikazi inemfucumfucu evuthayo endaweni yomzimba kanye nasesikhwameni. Ama-gliders ane-sugar anephunga elimnandi, elichazwa njengephunga elimnandi le-musky. Ngenkathi kungase ibe namandla kunamaduna ngenkathi yokuzalanisa, akuyona iphunga eliqinile noma elimnandi.
Bobabili abesilisa abesilisa nabesilisa abeshukela banesisu esimnyama nesifuba esinombala nesisu, nomcibisholo omnyama owela phansi ubude babo. I-Sugar gliders izindlebe ezinkulu azizinwele ngokuphelele. Izindlebe zisesimweni esiqhubekayo (esetshenziselwa ukukhetha imisindo) futhi ingahamba ngokuzimela komunye nomunye. Umsila we-Sugar gliders usetshenziswa njengendlela yokukhwela, ukuzinza nokulinganisela. Uma iguqa, umsila usiza ukuqondisa ukuhamba kwezindiza. Lezi zilwane nazo zinekhanda lesikhumba eliphuma kusukela esihlakalweni kuya esikhaleni. Lapho lesi sithunjwa sithendukile, kusiza ukushayela ushukela empeleni ukuhamba emoyeni.
I-Sugar Glider Ubulili nokuzaliswa
Ngaphandle kwebala elimise okwenziwe ngedayimane, ama-sugar gliders abesilisa ane-furry scrotum encane ebonakalayo ekuhlolweni.
Abashukela abesilisa besifazane banesikhwama esiswini sabo futhi abanalo indawo emakhanda abo.Ngaphandle kokuba bafinyelele ekuvuthweni ngokobulili, ama-sugar gliders azozala ngonyaka kanye nomlingani kaningi. Abashukela besifazane bangama-litter amabili noma amathathu ngonyaka kanti amalitha amaningi azokhiqiza ingane eyodwa noma amabili.
Uma ushukela wesifazane usubeletha, izinsana ezincane kakhulu zizokhuphukela ngqo esikhwameni somama.
Lezi zinyane ezincane cishe ngeke zibonwe esikhwameni sezinyanga ezimbili. Emva kwamasonto angama-6, umfana wesifo ushukela cishe uzovela esikhwameni somama. Bazoqhubeka besondla umama wabo futhi cishe bazobe sebekulungele ukuncika emva kokuba amehlo abo evulekile amaviki amathathu kuya kwangu-4. Lapho abantwana beshukela sebevule amehlo abo, bangaphathwa ngabantu isikhathi esifushane. Ngemuva kokuthi izingane zisenele, zingathunyelwa emakamelweni abo ngaphandle kwabazali bazo.
