Iiblowu ezimnyama, ezibhityileyo ziboniswa ngabantu abaninzi kwiilwandle zaseFlorida. Babizwa ngokuba zii-Sea Hares. Iingcali zebhayoloji zithi azinabungozi kwaye ziyindalo ngokupheleleyo ngeli xesha lonyaka.
Unokuzibona ziphumle kumanxweme amaninzi aseFlorida emva kokuba imimoya yasentshona nemisinga yamanzi abandayo zibakhukulise elunxwemeni, nto leyo eqhelekileyo kwiinyanga zasehlotyeni.
“Andazi ukuba kutheni kanye kanye, kodwa uqikelelo lwam lwabafundileyo lunento yokwenza nokuzala,” watsho uElizabeth Allred, isazi ngebhayoloji yaselwandle kwiFlorida Oceanographic Society. I-Aplysia morio Sea Hare ibonakala kumanxweme aseBermuda naseMpuma yeUnited States, ukusuka eRhode Island ukuya eFlorida naseTexas.
Iingcali zebhayoloji zithi zondla ubukhulu becala kwi-algae kunye nokhula olukhulu lwaselwandle. Izilwanyana ezinkulu ezimile okwengqukuva zimnyama ngebala kwaye zinepere ezimbini zeentente. Isibini esinye, esisentloko, sinde ngokumila kwaye sifana neendlebe zomvundla, nto leyo ebangela igama elithi sea hare.
Izilwanyana ezihamba kancinci zinonyaka omnye wobomi kwaye zidla ngokusebenza ebusuku. Nangona ezi zilwanyana zaselwandle zitshiza i-inki emfusa xa ziphazamisekile, izazi ngebhayoloji zithi azinabungozi ebantwini yaye, enyanisweni, ziluncedo kuphando lwezonyango.

INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- The Aplysia morio Sea Hare shows up on beaches in Bermuda and the Eastern United States, from Rhode Island to Florida and Texas.
- One pair, located on the head, are long in shape and resemble rabbit ears, giving rise to the name sea hare.
- Although these sea slugs spray a purple ink when disturbed, biologists say they are harmless to humans and are, in fact, helpful in medical research.
