ʻO Beak ka'āpana waiwai nui loa no nā manu a pau. ʻO ka hoʻololi ikiʻana o ia mea, hiki i ka hopena o ke ola o kāu pipi. Ma kaʻikeʻana i kekahi hemahema hikiʻole keʻikeʻia ma ka'ā'ī o ka beak, e huli koke kekahi i ke kumu o kēia kaʻina hana. Hiki paha he mea huna i loko o ke kino o kahi maʻi nui e pono ai e mālama kokeʻia.
No ke aha e loaʻa ai i ka'ūpala ka beak?
- ʻO kaʻaiʻole.
- Hoʻopukaʻia me mite Knemidokoptes.
- Nā maʻi a me nā maʻi i loko o nā'ōpū.
Ma muli o ka hemahema o nā mea kiko'ī a iʻole nā lāʻau hua nui no ke kino, ua nui nā pilikia ma nā holoholona. Hiki paha i nā Parrots ke pilikia no kēia kumu, ināʻaʻole mālama pono ka mea nāna i kaʻai piha o kāna pipi. ʻO ka hapanui pinepine, kūʻia kēlā mau maʻi no ka nele i nā hua aʻo A a me C, biotin,ʻeleʻele folic. Inā emi kaʻai i ka mea ala, eʻoluʻolu ka stratum corneum, hiki keʻano maʻalahi, hiki ke maʻalahi i nā manu eʻai i ka palaoa. ʻO ka kūʻaiʻana i nā'āpana koleke kūikawā koke ia e hoʻokuʻu i nāʻano o ia mau mea, aʻo ka mea'ē aʻe, hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻohana no ka uluʻana i ka palaoa i uluʻia, a he maikaʻi loa ka maikaʻi.
ʻO nā wahi luna o ka epidermis kahi kahi punahele o kēia mau pale. ʻO kā lākou hana ola,ʻaʻole ia wale nō kaʻoluʻolu o nā manu, akā,ʻo kaʻino hoʻi o ka kole. Ua aʻo ka mite e hoʻopuka i nā pūnaewele i loko o ia mea, e luku ana i kahiʻano likeʻole, aʻo ka porosity ka hopena i kaʻeleʻele o ka papa waho. He aha kāu e hana ai, no ka mea he aha ka beak? Pono e hoʻokuʻu kokeʻia ka manu maʻi, e hoʻokuʻuʻia nā mea kahiko a pau a me nā pelekane, aʻo ka hale e pono ke holoiʻia. No ka mālamaʻana i ka beak, hoʻohana i kaʻaila'alapalē averse.
I kekahi manawa, he kalo e loaʻa ai kahi kolo o kaʻawaʻawa e nahā ana ma muli o ka maʻi o ka ate liʻiliʻi, ka mea e pili ana i ka hale, e hoʻonā i ka hōkū o ka horny. Inā hāwele ka manu i kahi meaʻoi aku, hiki i ke'anuhi ai i nā hōʻino a iʻole nā kīnā liʻiliʻi. ʻO ka hōʻehaʻana me nāʻeha e hiki ke hoʻohālikelike i keʻano o nā ulu, i kekahi manawa e hoʻoponopono hou i keʻano o ka beak.
