Emva kokuba lo mmeli weentlanzi ehlala kwiindunduma zase-Israel, kodwa namhlanje kutshabalala, ngoko ke ngo-2010 kwi-zoo yelizwe kufuphi nesihlabathi (i-barchan) ikati yeFelis Margarit yabonakala inzala, kwavela ithemba lokuvuselela uhlanga.

Ikati yesihlabathi ekuboneni kuqala iyafana nekati eliqhelekileyo lasekhaya. Kodwa kukho olunye umehluko ophawulekayo - intloko ebanzi nangemva. Isilwanyana sinezikhwebu ezibanzi, ezikhulu, ezivelele-ngexesha lokuzingela ikati libachukumisa okanye lidibanise. Ummeli othakazelisayo weekati ubude kunekati eqhelekileyo - ifinyelela ngamasentimitha angama-60, ubunzima ukusuka ku-1.5 ukuya ku-3.5 kg. Isilwanyana sinomphunga ococekileyo kunye nesinxibe, umbala wezinto ezinokuthi zenziwe ezahlukeneyo - ezivela kumbala ophuzi ukuya kumbala obomvu. Iimvulo ezimnyama zikhona emva, kwaye zikhanyise kwisisu. Isalathisi somsila omude sinomthunzi omnyama.

Ikati yentlabathi inemigqa emifutshane, kwiimfestile apho inwele ekhuni. Ngale ndlela, uluntu luqinisekisile ukuba isilwanyana asitshitshisi kwiindawo ezingqinileyo zezulu apho zihlala khona.

Okuthakazelisayo, nangona kusetyenziswa ngokubanzi, uhlanga aluzange lukhankanywe kwiincwadi zenzululwazi kude kube ngu-1858.

Ngesihlandlo sokuqala lesi silwanyana esithakazelisayo sichazwa ngumthonyama waseFransi uVictor Losh. Uthiwa "ngumculi" wekati ye-barchan, awayeyifumene xa ehlolisisa iifama kunye neentyatyambo zaseMntla Sahara. Iintlobo ezitsha zabizwa ngokuba ngu "Felis Marguerite", ngokuhlonipha i-France jikelele, uJean-Auguste Marguerite. Emva kwenkcazo yokuqala yekati yaseAlgeria, ezinye iintlobo zezilwanyana zafunyanwa zihlala kwimimandla eyahlukileyo.

Ikati yesihlabathi, enefoto ongayibona kule nqaku, ukhetha ukuhlala kwiindawo zenkangala kunye neentsholongwane ezinqabileyo, uyayithanda intsimbi kunye neendawo eziphambili. Isilwanyana sinyamezela ngokunyamezela amaqondo okushisa ukusuka -5 ^о С to +52 ^о С.
