Mphepete mwa nyanja yam'mphepete mwa nyanja madzulo ofunda kotentha kungakhale malo opumula kwambiri padziko lapansi. Sitinakumanepo ndi akamba amene akumanga zisa madzulo okongolawa kumpoto chakumadzulo kwa dziko la Nicaragua (mafunde sanali bwino), koma sitinadandaule. Phokoso lofewa la mafundewa linapereka nyimbo ya Milky Way yowala kwambiri yomwe ndawonapo zaka zambiri. Kungokhala kunja pa mchenga kunali zosangalatsa zokwanira. Koma sitinayende pabasi kwa maola 10 kuchokera ku El Salvador kukayenda mwabata kunyanja.

Tinafika ku Padre Ramos Estuary chifukwa ndi imodzi mwa ntchito zolimbikitsa kwambiri zosamalira kamba za m'nyanja. Gulu lathu la akatswiri odziwa akamba am'nyanja apadziko lonse anali komweko ngati gawo la ulendo wofufuza ndikuteteza amodzi mwa akamba omwe ali pachiwopsezo kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi, kum'mawa kwa Pacific. kamba wapanyanja wa hawksbill. Motsogozedwa ndi antchito aku Nicaragua a Fauna & Flora International (FFI, gulu lapadziko lonse lapansi loteteza zachilengedwe) ndipo idachitika mothandizidwa ndi a Eastern Pacific Hawksbill Initiative (yotchedwa ICAPO), pulojekiti ya kamba imeneyi imateteza limodzi mwa madera awiri akuluakulu odyetsera zisa za anthuwa (limodzi ndi El Salvador's Jiquilisco Bay). Ntchitoyi imadalira kutengapo mbali kwa anthu ammudzi; komiti ya mabungwe 18 osapindula, magulu a anthu, maboma ang'onoang'ono, ndi zina zambiri.

Msewu wa m'mphepete mwa nyanja wolowera m'tawuni ya Padre Ramos umamveka ngati malo ena ambiri m'mphepete mwa nyanja ya Pacific ku Central America. Tizipinda tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono timakhala tating'onoting'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono tating'ono ta gombe. Ulendowu sunakhudze tawuni yayikulu komabe kuyang'ana kwa ana akumaloko kukuwonetsa kuti ma gringos sanawonekere ponseponse mtawuniyi.

Titafika ku nyumba zathu zosungiramo zinthu zakale, ndinatenga kamera yanga ndikuyenda m’tauni. Masewera a mpira wampira masana amapikisana ndi kusambira m'madzi ozizira kuti azisangalala ndi anthu okhalamo. Ndinatuluka kupita kugombe la nyanja pamene dzuŵa likuloŵa ndikutsatira chakumpoto mpaka kukamwa kwa chigwacho, chomwe chili kuzungulira tauniyo. Chigwa chophwanyika cha phiri la Cosigüina chimayang'ana gombeli ndi zilumba zingapo.

Tsiku lotsatira, titapumula kotheratu, tinanyamuka molawirira m’mabwato aŵiri kukayesa kupha mbalame yamphongo m’madzi. Akamba ambiri omwe amaphunzira m'derali amakhala aakazi omwe amagwidwa mosavuta pamphepete mwa nyanja atamanga zisa. Tidawona kanyama kakang'ono pafupi ndi chilumba chotchedwa Isla Tigra, kutsogolo kwa chilumba cha Venecia, ndipo gululo lidayamba kuchitapo kanthu, munthu m'modzi akutuluka m'ngalawa ndikumapeto kwa ukonde pomwe bwato likuyenda mozungulira mozungulira mozungulira. khoka likufalikira kuseri kwa ngalawayo. Botilo litafika m’mphepete mwa nyanja, aliyense anadumpha n’kukakokera mbali ziŵiri za ukondewo, mwatsoka wopanda kanthu.

Ngakhale tinali ndi mwayi wogwira akamba m'madzi, gululi lidatha kugwira akamba atatu omwe timafunikira pamwambo wofufuza ma satellite. Tinabweretsa kamba mmodzi kuchokera ku Venecia, yomwe ili kutsidya lina la gombe la tawuni ya Padre Ramos, kuti tiphatikizepo anthu ammudzi omwe amatenga nawo mbali pa polojekitiyi. Zochepa zomwe zimadziwika za akambawa, koma makina otumizira ma satellite akhala mbali ya kafukufuku wochititsa chidwi yemwe wasintha momwe asayansi amaonera mbiri ya moyo wa zamoyozi. Chopeza chomwe chinadabwitsa akatswiri ambiri a kamba chinali chakuti mbalame za hawksbill zimakonda kukhala m’mphepete mwa mtsinje wa mangrove; Mpaka nthawi imeneyo, ambiri amakhulupirira kuti amakhala m'matanthwe a coral okha.

Anthu khumi ndi awiri adasonkhana pamene gulu lathu likugwira ntchito yoyeretsa chigoba cha kambayo kuchotsa ndere ndi ma barnacles. Kenako, tinkachimanga ndi mchenga chigobacho kuti pakhale malo olimba omatirapo cholumikizira. Pambuyo pake, tidaphimba gawo lalikulu la carapace ndi zigawo za epoxy kuti zitsimikizire zolimba. Titalumikiza chowulutsira, kachidutswa kakang'ono ka PVC kachitetezo kanayikidwa mozungulira mlongoti kuti muteteze ku mizu ndi zinyalala zina zomwe zitha kugwetsa mlongoti. Chomaliza chinali kupenta wosanjikiza wa penti woletsa kuipitsa kuti ndere zikule.

Kenako, tinabwerera ku Venecia kuti tikaike zida zina ziwiri zotumizira akamba pafupi ndi malo opulumutsira pulojekitiyo, kumene mazira a hawksbill amatengedwa kuchokera kuzungulira doko kuti atetezedwe mpaka ataswa ndiyeno nkumasulidwa. Khama losatopa la "careyeros" angapo am'deralo (mawu achi Spanish omwe amagwira ntchito ndi hawksbill, omwe amadziwika kuti "carey") adapindula ndi mwayi wogwira ntchito ndi luso lamakono pa kafukufuku wofunikira wa sayansi. Kunyadira kwawo ntchito yawo kunali koonekeratu m’kumwetulira kwawo pamene ankayang’ana akamba aŵiriwo akupita kumadzi pamene ma transmitterswo atalumikizidwa.

Kusamalira akamba ku Padre Ramos sikungophatikiza zamagetsi ku zipolopolo zawo. Ntchito zambiri zimachitidwa ndi a careyeros mumdima, akuyendetsa mabwato awo m'mphepete mwa nyanja kufunafuna ma hawksbill. Akapezeka, amaitana ogwira ntchitoyo amene amaika chizindikiro chachitsulo pazipsepse za akambawo ndi kuyeza utali ndi m’lifupi mwa zipolopolo zawo. Kenako careyeros imabweretsa mazirawo ku hatchery ndikupeza malipiro awo malinga ndi kuchuluka kwa mazira omwe apeza komanso ana angati omwe atuluka mu chisa.

Zinali zaka zingapo zapitazo kuti amuna omwewa adagulitsa mazirawa mosaloledwa, akuponya madola angapo pachisa chilichonse kuti apatse amuna osadzidalira pa libido yawo. Tsopano, ambiri mwa mazirawa amatetezedwa; nyengo yapitayi mazira oposa 90% adatetezedwa ndipo ana opitirira 10,000 adawapanga kuti azikhala bwino kumadzi kudzera mu ntchito ya FFI, ICAPO, ndi anzawo. Akambawa amakumanabe ndi ziwopsezo zingapo mu Padre Ramos Estuary komanso m'mitundu yonse yawo. Kumeneko, chimodzi mwa ziwopsezo zawo zazikulu ndi kufalikira kwachangu kwa mafamu a shrimp kulowa m'mitengo ya mangrove.

Chimodzi mwa zida zomwe FFI ndi ICAPO akuyembekeza kuzigwiritsa ntchito poteteza akambawa ndikubweretsa anthu odzipereka komanso oyendera zachilengedwe pamalo okongolawa. A pulogalamu yatsopano yodzipereka imapereka mwayi kwa akatswiri a sayansi ya zakuthambo kuti azikhala ndi mlungu umodzi kapena miyezi ingapo akugwira ntchito ndi gulu la m'deralo poyang'anira ntchito yobereketsa, kusonkhanitsa deta pa akamba, ndi kuthandizira kuphunzitsa anthu ammudzi chifukwa chake kuli kofunika kuteteza akambawa. Kwa alendo, palibe kusowa kwa njira zodzaza masiku onse ndi usiku, kuchokera pa mafunde, kusambira, kutenga nawo mbali paulendo pamphepete mwa nyanja, kukwera maulendo, ndi kayaking.

M'mawa wanga womaliza ku Padre Ramos, ndidadzuka m'mawa kwambiri kuti ndikakhale mlendo, ndikulemba ganyu wonditsogolera kuti andiperekeze paulendo wapa kayaking kudutsa m'nkhalango ya mangrove. Ine ndi wonditsogolera wanga tinayenda panjira yotakata ndikukwera m'mitsinje yopapatiza kwambiri yomwe inkasokoneza luso langa loyenda. Tili mkati, tinaima pamalo enaake n’kukwera kaphiri kakang’ono kokaona malowa.

Kumwamba, mtsinjewu, womwe ndi wotetezedwa ngati malo osungirako zachilengedwe, unkawoneka bwino kwambiri. Chilema chimodzi chodziŵika bwino chinali famu yaikulu yamakona anayi a shrimp yomwe inasiyana ndi makhotedwe osalala a m’mphepete mwa madzi achilengedwe. Nsomba zambiri padziko lapansi pano zimapangidwa motere, ndipo zimabzalidwa m'mayiko osauka omwe alibe malamulo ochepa oteteza nkhalango za mangrove zomwe zamoyo zambiri zimadalira. Ndikuwoloka ngalande yotakata yobwerera ku tauni, kamutu kakang'ono ka kamba katuluka m'madzi kuti kapume pafupifupi mapazi 30 patsogolo panga. Ndimakonda kuganiza kuti anali kunena “hasta luego”, mpaka nditabwereranso ku zamatsenga izi kuchokera ku ngodya ya Nicaragua.

Dziperekeni ndi polojekitiyi! - Bwerani mutenge nawo mbali ndi polojekitiyi, kuthandiza ofufuza akumaloko kuyang'anira ma hatcheres, ma tag akamba, ndi kumasula ana. Mtengo wake ndi $45/tsiku womwe umaphatikizapo chakudya ndi malo ogona m'makabati akomweko.

ONANI Akamba akuthandizira ntchitoyi kudzera m’zopereka, kuthandiza kupeza anthu ongodzipereka, komanso kuphunzitsa anthu za zoopsa zimene akambawa amakumana nazo. Pangani chopereka pano. Dola iliyonse yoperekedwa imapulumutsa ana a hawksbill 2!
