Amandla oshevu

Sinoshevu uma sidliwa

Siyingozi kuphela uma kukhona okusidlayo.

Ushevu waso wenzani?

This bird is not venomous. Its meat can be poisonous if the birds have eaten certain plants, although which plants is still debated. The resulting illness, called coturnism, causes muscle soreness and may lead to kidney failure.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKungaba buhlungu ngempela, kodwa cishe akukaze kube kubi kakhulu.

One in four people who eat poisonous quail meat become ill with coturnism. The illness can lead to kidney failure.1

Senzani uma sesabile?

When flushed, it keeps low and soon drops back into cover. It would rather creep away than fly.1

Uma umuntu esithintile noma esidlile

Uma umuntu esidlile noma enezimpawu ngemva kokusidla: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo noma isikhungo soshevu (poison centre) ngokushesha.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma usithintile noma usidlile: ungahlikihli amehlo noma umlomo wakho, geza izandla zakho futhi uthole usizo lwezokwelapha.

Asikuzingeli wena. Ushevu waso ukhona nje ukuze kungabikho okusidlayo. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

Huge numbers are caught in nets along the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. An estimated 12.9 million birds were caught across Egypt in 2012 during the autumn migration.1

In 1537, Queen Jane Seymour, third wife of Henry VIII, developed a strong craving for quail. Courtiers and diplomats abroad were ordered to find supplies for her.1

The Book of Numbers in the Bible describes a huge mass of quails blown in by a wind, which the Israelites took as meat in the wilderness.1

Common quails are strongly migratory, unlike most game birds.1

The young can leave the nest and feed themselves shortly after hatching, and they stay with the family group for 30 to 50 days.1
