The word says,
Everybody hears of a lot of cold jest about polar bear and penguin,
The most typical nothing is more... than:
"Why doesn't polar bear have penguin baby? "Why doesn't polar bear have penguin baby??
Because arctic is to do not have,still not be of penguin!
Of course, fun puts in fun 's charge,
But this sees the common sense since, holding water before 19 centuries however.
Because, the arctic in the past, it is to have " penguin " , and return absolutely true had been eaten by polar bear,
Once lived together with polar bear " penguin " , namely this kind grows so that with antarctic penguin 9 split phase are like, was called in the past " arctic penguin " , be called nowadays " sea sparrow " avian,
They once spread all over Beijing University West, over multiply perched to go up all ages, also be the earliest the Penguin that be called (the English name of penguin) avian... .
However today, people can see it in museum only. . . .
A long time ago,
Return when the mankind won't shipbuilding goes to sea, had not been in Beijing University West is large-scale before the activity, have a kind of peculiar curassow that won't fly early the island that spread all over a big area,
Height of this kind of bird is close a meter, grow fatly fat, the face looked once upon a time, resemble the curassow that is a white, look from the back, they are wrapping around again the feather of complete black, they walk along a road to stagger awakward, two long small wing won't fly however,
Their figure is described, listen go up and penguin of today's A heart benefit is a little similar... .
A Deli penguin
Ancient period, live in the ancients of seaside of area of Beijing University West, no matter be Europe, still be North America Indian, faltering to this kind curassow sees be used to is not strange,
Await in those days, people often catchs them to come cram oneself with food. Be in early the Old Stone Age, the mankind has butcher appropriative alimental records this kind of bird... .
In Niu Fenlan the island is in BC the things buried with the dead of coffin pit is medium 2000, people ever discovered one makes made-up clothing by 200 fur of this kind of curassow.
And Canadian Labuladuo area, butcher the record of this kind of bird also but 5 centuries control restrospect to the Christian era.
No matter how, in lack food, the fast ancient with exiguous signs of human habitation, the mankind is planted to this in coastal butcher the species of the curassow like penguin, do not constitute too big menace.
And all these, as 15 centuries the open of old nautical age, the amplification of human territory, everything was changed. . . . Of this kind of black and white feather faltering curassow, begin to be civilized world place witting.
Arrived 16 centuries, as the prosperity of old nautical age, the explorer of European each district people span in succession Atlantic, longing searchs the world outside through sea route,
At this moment a lot of explorer people in the road that sails in Beijing University West, send the island with medium now road surprisingly, have the bird with this kind of peculiar appearance, this kind won't fly, black and white feather, when walking, shake place show humourous slightly avian your explorer people extremely open-eyed,
They plant this excitedly avian call Penguin, namely today the word of the penguin in English... .
Yes, the earliest " penguin " , it is to be in what discover near arctic actually... .
As osculatory grow in quantity, people begins to understand,
This kind of Penguin lives on the island of the decharge of the seaside and evenness of a few landform,
Because north is Atlantic rich school provided abundant food, and the insular reef that they perch does not have land and aerial natural enemy almost again,
Penguin people both neither needs to rely on a flight to forage, also do not need a flight to avoid natural enemy, and the capability that they need most is phreatic water, then, as time passes, they slowly evolution became wing smallish, the pattern that fits phreatic water... .
The area that they distributing also exceptionally wide,
Spanish north comes south, north amounts to Canada, Greenland island, Icelandic, the Faroe Islands, Norwegian, Ireland and England...
Can say to be in ancient time, the Northern Hemisphere stands by north the area of a bit spreads all over Penguin almost, the aborigines of Greenland island also can catch them to eat the meat, do boiling water with the egg, the superficial knowledge that uses them makes dress drive cold.
The most magical, await in those days they, also can meet a face with polar bear now and then, play a phreatic water contest fast contest, be lived to eat off by polar bear capture, also not be the thing with strange what.
Discover Penguin as more and more navigator, this surprise spread everywhere to Yuan Hang's circle. To the person of distant at that time ship, they are thinking is same a problem:
Can? Good? How?
Right, the person in Yuan Hang looks, they thought of to eat for a short while. . . . This is fat the bird is much source of a food ah... .
French explorer Jacques Cartier ever had described Penguin in the diary,
He and sailors sailed on Atlantic 6 go to 8 weeks, besides biltong and brawn, without other edibles, when they sail along northeast coast, discovery is apart from Niu Fenlan island 40 miles place, have a place that the name is big decharge, here is the islands of landform evenness everywhere, and on islands, won't fly actually everywhere, big fat seabird Penguin, to be badly in need of alimental for them, did not compare this more excited work,
"A few birds and goose are so big, black and white feather, growing the rostellum like the crow, these birds are fat exceptionally... . Caught be less than half hours, we are not installed with respect to two boats fell, resembling simply is like gathering stone... . Resembling simply is like gathering stone... ..
Those years, penguin is alimental of way fleet complement all the time " help snack " , those are perching Penguin, stand by the islands of North America, be made fun of to call by a few sailors even " the snack inn with the earliest North America " .
Saying Penguin is snack exaggerative not at all, because they are mixed later " penguin " same, honest too good caught...
They won't fly, be without defense ability, the deadliest is, they were not afraid of the mankind, extremely curious to the mankind still even, one have the mankind to stand by, they not only do not avoid, instead gang ground emerged... . .
That time is in the sailor of distant ship of Beijing University West, aboard sees Penguin appears and disappear to resembled seeing the hope that be rescued far,
Because they are the food that help,be not merely, more because, the place that Penguin appears and disappear has decharge, make number with them, can successful escape all sorts of dangerous decharge and key... .
Begin from this one period, as the open of commerce of big air route, jack-tar people leave wildly in sea route road eat, the amount of Penguin begins quick acute to decrease,
Begin to catch besides the mankind kill, another reason also is them progenitive capability is not strong,
Penguin executes lifetime monogamy, produce an egg every year on bare rock only, collective hatch a half moon. Such progenitive speed, cannot catch up with the mankind naturally to catch killed rate...
3D recovers from an illness animation
But for fairness,
Reduce capacity with awaiting distant ship nautical to catch in those days, still can't let Penguin plant group of experience disaster... .
Make truly Penguin begins a strike ruined, it is the commercial value that people began to discover Penguin.
Because of the buccal mouth according to legend of distant ship crews, increasing person knew a kind of black and white feather, walk comical the curassow that won't fly,
Not only the flesh is qualitative delicious, function of their feather heat preservation exceeds strong, special suit to make eider down bedding and clothing.
such, the businessman sponsors fish fleet is embraced entered big decharge, developed Niu Fenlan fishing ground, fishermans hit fishing to catch Penguin wildly at the same time at the same time,
The islands near the Niu Fenlan that awaits in those days, a lot of islands that await in those days are met in progenitive season be enclothed completely by the Penguin of countless, fishermans describe even:
"Do not wear boots to cannot step sufficient these islands "
On the island that awaits in those days, often can see such setting:
People wears good boiler to heat good water, direct from around catch Penguin, after one breaks a neck, throw in boiler to iron, unplug later next feather, europe of lading carry back sells textile manufacturer... .
such, ten years short, this kind ever spread all over Beijing University West everywhere, everywhere is visible " arctic penguin " quick acute reduces the amount, the edge that reached to be in severe danger in an instant... .
A lot of shellback are in go to sea when passing Beijing University West, discover surprisingly, in the past a few islands that bestrew Penguin, a bird also was lost sight of nowadays... .
Arrived 19 centuries, the island outside living in Niu Fenlan group the Penguin that go up already by be ruthless,
But Penguin still does not have a blind alley, they still have lease of life of a gleam of it seems that.
At that time, icelandic south still has an isle, because be far from the mainland, and circulating a lot of terrible folk the fokelore about storm,
Fishermans dare not step sufficient this islands, the Penguin here is able to multiply surely here eventually haunt... .
However, misfortunes never come singly,
1830, an island volcano erupts, this Penguin takes refugee finally isle as disappear in billow...
Of very lucky is, the Penguin on the island also was not entirely in this disaster get killed, 40 escape to Penguin more,
They are tenacious the islands Eldey that ground change is apart from the mainland to have 13 kilometers only toward another, these 40 pairs of Penguin,
It is the hope with this last species... .
(Eldey island)
Be in eventually at that time, government of European each country realised the seriousness of the problem, a lot of countries begin to sign protection to make, prohibit people is caught kill Penguin,
Just when all these is late already.
Content with rare for expensive, the species that is in severe danger the more, market price is higher, the Europe at that time is brownstone it is with the specimen of animal of different of collect precious birds be proud, a lot of nobles to obtain Penguin, not hesitate to give costly money...
Eldey island is discovered very quickly by element of hunt of a few pilfer,
40 pairs of Penguin of this rare survival, be arrested very quickly also a remnant very few...
Until. . . .
1844, a few museum publish an advertisement publicly, drive a big price, get the sample of Penguin to folk, allege:
"Obtain this sample this is to publicize the content that protects Penguin to the public... . "Obtain this sample this is to publicize the content that protects Penguin to the public... ..
On July 3, 1844, it is a life that deserves historical engrave...
This day, a group of fishermans found a pair of Penguin.
They as if like finding treasure, this pair of Penguin were taken by the throat before rushing very quickly. This is in to Penguin at that time incubative. What they just know later is, they are killed, it is on the world last pairs of Penguin.
And in catch in killing, among them a fisherman one foot tread down the egg that they are brooding, tread down the future with this kind of final on the world curassow. . . .
Later they by make it specimen, sold museum, pass with Yu Xuan " the great sense that protects Penguin " ... .
So far, penguin, "The penguin of the Northern Hemisphere " eradicate formally... .
Bemoan in people when Penguin disappears,
At that time navigator people Yuan Hang arrived a few islands of antarctic maritime space,
Everybody discovers surprisingly, of the earth this one extremely, saw them again unexpectedly " the arctic animal that once was familiar with " , they think innocently, this kind of animal distributings the two end in the earth, also call its then " Penguin " . . .
But actually, this is a brand-new species, namely the antarctic penguin that we see now...
Mariner people be overjoyed,
"Penguin did not die, penguin still is in the Southern Hemisphere is living! ! !!
Birdman people also decide, since the Penguin of the Northern Hemisphere had disappeared, allow new discovery, the antarctic curassow of appearance likeness accedes Penguin this name,
And the arctic Penguin of the museum that be stocked, change call sea sparrow (Great Auk) ... . .
However, the people later discovers finally,
Penguin and big auk are not brotherly sister, not be cousin even.
Penguin is to belong to penguin division familial, and the member that auk is auk division.
The whole world has a variety of 10 different penguin and 4 kinds of auk, without any jackknife, contemporary gene a collection of illustrative plates is to prove they are not a sort completely more...
And their features is similar, characteristics likeness, it is the result that a kind of hasten is the same as evolution only,
(alleged hasten is the same as evolution, those who point to is the biology that comes from different ancestor namely, as a result of similar way of life, whole or partial pattern structure are changed towards same way... )
The conclusion of this sadness makes clear,
Once " arctic penguin " , that true Penguin on the history, had been eradicated thoroughly by the mankind, in disappearing in historical endless flow... .
Have amount about up to now fur of 75 seas sparrow and 75 sea sparrow egg are deposited to be in the museum of each district, they more resembling is each caution tablet, reminding the people nowadays:
The story of polar bear and penguin, before 200 years, once not was cold jest. . . .
Sea sparrow is monumental
