Umzila weGalapagos. Umbono onobungozi kwi-Archipelago

I-adventure enomdla kakhulu ebomini iya kuba luhambo oluya e-Ecuador naseziQhingeni zaseGalapagos. Ezi zityalo zomhlaba, ezilahlekileyo kwiPacific, zikhetheke ngokwenene. Okokuqala kunye neyona nto, iIlifagos Islands, iindwendwe ezithandwa ngabantu abahlukahlukeneyo, ukutyelela iintyatyambo kunye nezilwanyana ezicebileyo. Abemi abaninzi kule ndawo bajongwa njengeqabile kwaye basengozini, umzekelo, iinqununu ezinkulu ezidumile. Olunye u mtsalane we-archipelago yi-funnel yeGalapagos. Phakathi kwamanxweme amaninzi ahlala kuyo, iindawo ezifudumalayo ezinobushushu kunye namanzi abandayo ase-Antarctic, ziyaqulunqa iifripopools eziyingozi.

Iziqithi zaseGalapagos, imephu ayiyi kukuvumela ukuba uqambe amanga, uhleli kumda womhlaba. Iikhilomitha eziliwaka ukusuka kummandla wase-Ecuadorian ngenxa yeemeko zokukhukhula kwentaba-mlilo ezazalelwa izigidi zeminyaka edlulileyo. I-archipelago ibandakanya i-thirteen ezinkulu, ezimasithandathu ezincinci kunye namashumi amabini anesiqithi. Abaninzi babo baneenqwelo ezinqabileyo kwintsimi yabo, kwaye isiqephu ngasinye somhlaba siyinxalenye enkulu ye-volcano enkulu emanzini. I-Galapagos imele ubukumkani beentaba-mlilo kunye nokuqhuma kwe-lava, ngaphezu koko kukho iiflabathi ezinesihlabathi esincinci se-shades ezahlukeneyo. Unxweme luhlanganiswe ngombala omnyama, umnquma nomhlophe - umfanekiso omangalisayo!

Iziqithi, ezifana ne-spray ye-lava eqingqiweyo elwandle, ukhangela abatyeleli. Umzila weGalapagos, ulwahlulo lwezilwanyana kunye nezilwanyana, yaba yimbangela yokuba ngowe-1959 i-epitelji yavakaliswa ipaki kazwelonke. UDarwin wayecinga ukuba ezi ndawo ziyi-paradesi yokuziphendukela kwemvelo, kunye noJacques Cousteau-eyona nto yokugqibela ehlala kuyo. Ngokuvisisana ngokupheleleyo kunye nehlabathi langaphandle, njengeminyaka eyiwaka eyadlulayo, apha iifudu ezinamavili amakhulu kunye ne-iguana. Izilwanyana apha aziyikwesaba umntu, kwaye iziqithi ngokwazo ziyinkolelo yezilwanyana zasendle phezu kwenkqubela ekhoyo.

Esi siqithi safunyanwa nguBhishophu wasePanme Thomas de Berlang wasePanama. Ngengozi, ngo-Matshi 10, ngo- 1535, ngexesha lokuzola, inqanawa ithathe ikhoyo ngoku ukusuka kwimida yaseMzantsi Melika. Ubabhishopu wabhala ukuba bafumene amazwe awakwaziwayo, ahlala kwiilwanyana ezingaqhelekanga kunye neentlanzi ezinkulu. Ngendlela, bebenaye banikela igama le-archipelago, emva kokuba zonke i-"gala-pago" ezisuka kwisiSpanish ziguqulelwe ngokuthi "inkulu enkulu". Abanqanawa babesazi bona njenge-Encantadas, oko kukuthi, iziqithi ezinomlilo: i-Galapagos kunye neengqungquthela ezinamandla ziyingozi kakhulu kwiinqanawa. Nangona la mazwe athatyathwa kakhulu ngaphambilana yi-Incas, basitshela ukuba ngasentshonalanga kukho isiqithi seMlilo, indlela eya kudala kwaye iyingozi.

Umzila weGalapagos yinto engummangaliso wendalo kunye nesimo esimangalisayo esihle. Ingozi esele ikulindele abo bafuna ukuyihlobisa le nto, idibanisa iimbilini zeengcipheko. Kwi-movie "Kon-Tiki", ekhokelwa ngabenzi befilimu uJoaquim Ronning kunye no-Espen Sandberg, uhambo oluqhelekileyo lweTurkey Heyerdahl kunye neqhwithi esivuthambileyo ngamagagasi ekuphakameni kweemitha ezilisithoba. Ngokuqinisekileyo, i-screenwriters idibanisa kancane kwaye igxininisa, kodwa intlanganiso yee-currents ezifudumeleyo kunye ne-thermoclines ingenakwenzeka. Ngoko ke, xa uza kutyelela ezi ndawo, kungcono ukubuyela kubaqeqeshi. Baya kunika uhambo olukhuselekileyo.
