Amava anetyhefu

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuthambileNjengokuhlatywa yinyosi okanye ngaphantsi. Phantse asinangozi ebantwini.

The shark poses no danger to humans. In October 2011, a man was bitten at Elwood Beach near Melbourne, but the bite did not pierce the skin and he was able to swim away while the shark was still attached to his calf.1

Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza

  • Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa (wavavanye ngesandla sakho), imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-90. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango, ingakumbi kwii-stonefish nakwii-stingray.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

  • Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
  • Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

1

It can turn its stomach inside out and spit out unwanted contents.1

2

It can breathe while lying still on the bottom. It pumps water in through its first gill slit and out through the others, so it does not need to swim with its mouth open.1

3

Juveniles have individual personalities. Some are bolder than others when exploring new places, and they respond differently to stress.1

4

Juveniles can learn to link bubbles, lights or sounds with food, and they can learn by watching other sharks.1

5

Adults are often seen resting together in caves, but juveniles do not seem to be social.1

6

Each year it migrates south in summer and returns north to breed in winter.1
