5 Fakta Mengagumkan tentang Elang Alap Kelabu: Si Predators yang Memukau

Penghuni langit tidak selalu tampil dengan kesan gagah dan menyeramkan. Ada beberapa jenis burung pemangsa yang justru memiliki penampilan cukup memesona dan tak kalah indahnya dibandingkan spesies burung lain yang populer karena keindahan mereka. Salah satunya adalah elang abu-abu (elang alap kelabu). Accipiter novaehollandiae ).

Burung indah ini mempunyai kombinasi warna plumase yang amat memesona. Pada bagian punggungnya umumnya berwarna biru-keabu-abuan ketika sudah matang, sedangkan pada masa remaja berubah menjadi coklat. Di sisi lain, area perutnya senantiasa bercorak putih. Bahkan, terdapat beberapa spesimen yang sesekali tampak dengan bulu seluruh badan berwarna putih. Ini menjadikan mereka sebagai satu-satunya pemangsa udara yang memiliki penampakan seperti itu. Paruh dari elang abu-albino berwana kuning dengan ujung hitam, serta pasangan tungir berwarna kuning yang diberi lengkapan cakar se Tajam silet bisa merapatkan tubuh mangsanya secara efisien.

Dari segi dimensi, elang abu-abu memiliki ukuran yang cukup besar dibandingkan dengan spesies lain di dalam genusnya. Accipiter Panjang badan mereka berkisar antara 40-55 sentimeter, beratnya mencapai 180-990 gram, dan lebar sayapnya adalah 70-110 centimeter. Ternyata betina dari jenis ini lebih besar daripada jantan. Elang abu-abu juga mempunyai beberapa hal unik lainnya yang bakal kami bahas di sini. Sudah tak sabar ingin mengenal hewan pemangsa ini? Mari scroll ke bawah!

1. Sebaran dan lingkungan hidup spesies tersebut

Elang abu yang disebut elang alap memang berasal dari Australia dan menjadi spesies endemik di sana. Berdasarkan laporan tersebut, Birds in Backyards Burung ini cukup umum terlihat di bagian utara sampai timur dari Negeri Kanguru. Mereka juga dapat ditemui di Pulau Tasmania. Tentang pemetaan sebarannya, tampaknya dipengaruhi oleh warna bulunya. Disebutkan bahwa individu-individu yang tinggal di wilayah utara dan barat laut biasanya mempunyai warna bulu putih murni, sedangkan yang ada di timur memiliki kombinasi antara abu-abu dan putih.

Tempat hidup utama untuk elang abu-abu adalah hutan dengan pohon-pohon besar. Akan tetapi, mereka mampu bertahan dalam sejumlah ekosistem lain seperti hutan terbuka, hutan tropis, bahkan kadang-kadang area perkebunan atau pemukiman orang. Elang ini lebih memilih dataran rendah daripada gunung-gunung, biasanya ditemukan pada ketinggian kurang dari 500 meter di atas permukaan laut.

2. Masakan Favorit serta Cara Berburunya

Elang abu-abu termasuk dalam kategori pemangsanya oportunis dengan ragam pilihan mangsa yang luas. Burung tersebut mengonsumsi beraneka macam mamalia mini, kelelawar, reptil, beberapa spesies burung lainnya, dan juga serangga. Teknik berburunya bervariasi sesuai dengan sasarannya masing-masing.

Menurut laporan dari The Peregrine Fund, cara berburu utama yang digunakan adalah dengan menyamar di antara dedaunan tinggi, kemudian menunggu hingga kesempatan datang. Mereka akan melakukan serangan saat buruan tidak curiga dengan mendekati secara terbang rendah langsung menuju korban tersebut. Teknik ini cukup efisien apabila mangsanya sedang ada di permukaan tanah. Akan tetapi, ketika melawan mangsa lainnya seperti spesies yang dapat terbang, elang abu-abu harus mempercepat laju terbangannya dalam pengejaran. Kuku pada kakinya memiliki fungsi vital yaitu mencengkeram, menjepit serta membunuh siapa pun atau apa saja yang sukses menjadi tangkapan mereka.

3. Burung tersendiri yang penuh teka-teki

Di luar musim kawin, elang Kelabu cenderung memilih tinggal sendirian. Animalia Menurut sumber, burung ini tidak melakukan perpindahan musiman. Sehingga, mereka lebih condong untuk tinggal dalam area tetap dengan range spesifik. Walaupun setiap individunya memiliki range masing-masing, informasi tersebut tidak menjelaskan apakah mereka akan bertarung melawan pengganggu luar yang masuk ke daerah miliknya atau justru tidak.

Oleh karena itu, elang abu-abu ini termasuk jenis yang amat pendiam. Kehadiran mereka sungguh langka dan lebih memilih untuk menghindar apabila mendeteksi adanya ancaman. Menariknya, bila dibandingkan dengan burung lain di genus tersebut, perilaku mereka berbeda secara signifikan. Accipiter Lain, elang alap kelabu cenderung terbang lebih rendah mendekati permukaan daratan dibandingkan melayang di ruang udara atas. Memandangkan habitatnya adalah hutan tebal dengan pepohonan raksasa, kebiasaan terbang rendah tersebut malah menjadikan mereka agak susah ditemui.

4. Sistem reproduksi

Elang alap kelabu ternyata merupakan hewan yang menganut poligami tunggal. Ini menunjukkan bahwa spesies tersebut hanya akan memiliki seekor pasangan selama masa hidupnya. Masa kawin untuk elang-elang ini terjadi dari bulan Juli sampai Desember. Sebelum bertelur dan menjalani prosesi perkawinan, sepasang elang ini bekerja sama dalam membangun sarang menggunakan batang kecil kayu serta dedaunan hijau diatas dahan pohon.

Menurut The Peregrine Fund, seekor betina dari elang abu-abu biasanya bertelur antara 2 sampai 4 butir setiap tahunnya saat berkembang biak. Proses pengincubasan tersebut berlangsung kurang lebih 30 hari di mana kebanyakan ditangani oleh sang betina sedangkan jantannya pergi mencari makan. Sesudah menetas, bayi-bayinya bakal tinggal bersama orang tuanya selama 30-38 hari. Selama periode ini, ibunya yang paling sering merawat serta menyusui si anak, sementara ayah hanya fokus membekali mereka dengan makanan. Walaupun sudah mulai belajar terbang ketika genap satu bulan umurnya, masih dibutuhkan waktu tambahan yaitu enam pekan bagi anakan-elang abu-abu agar benar-benar bisa melakukan pemburuannya sendiri dan hidup tanpa bantuan kedua orangtuanya.

5. Status konservasi

Menurut daftar merah IUCN, elang abu-abu termasuk spesies dengan ancaman rendah (Least Concern). Meski demikian, jumlah populasi dari burung tersebut ternyata sedang berkurang. Diperkirakan terdapat antara 2.500 sampai 10 ribu ekor dewasa yang masih bertahan hidup dan tersebar luas sesuai wilayah distribusinya.

Walaupun termasuk dalam kategori hewan dengan risiko rendah, pemerintah Australia sesungguhnya telah memulai program proteksi untuk jenis tersebut. SWIFFT Usaha yang dilakukan pemerintah daerah meliputi pemetaan jumlah dan tempat perkawinan elang abu-abu, perlindungan habitat dengan mengendalikan dampak negatif terhadap lingkungan, serta menyampaikan pendidikan kepada publik tentang betapa pentingnya langkah-langkah pelestarian jenis burung tersebut. Penyusutan populasi elang abu-abu disebabkan oleh hilangnya habitat dan pertentangan antara manusia dan hewan.

Beragam fakta Dari elang abu-abu tadi terlihat sangat mengagumkan, bukan? ternyata, tidak selalu burung berwarna cerah mudah dilihat oleh para peneliti. Elang abu-abu telah membuktikan bahwa mereka tetap dapat menjalani kehidupan yang cukup membingungkan bahkan untuk para peneliti sekalipun.

Clare Farmer Revives 27 Acres of Bog in Biodiversity Initiative — 'A Model for Others'

In western Clare, a blanket bog is experiencing renewed vitality as a nearby farmer has consented to rehydrate sections of his property. This initiative aims at enhancing conditions conducive to biodiversity enhancement.

The Knocknahila Bog Peatland Rewetting Initiative is a significant endeavor aimed at restoring parts of a blanket bog located close to Mullagh. It marks the second time a local community has spearheaded such a peatland restoration effort within County Clare, with this being the inaugural initiative of its type in Western Clare.

The initiative involves a joint undertaking among local farmer Seán Tubridy, the Knocknahila Community Group, and Barry O'Loughlin from Clare County Council’s biodiversity department.

Promoting the idea among fellow farmers to restore wetlands, Seán Tubridy commented, "Our farm includes 27 acres of abandoned bog where planting trees was undesirable. By restoring moisture, this area can naturally thrive with various types of mosses and vegetation, effectively capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This enhanced habitat will benefit species like the hen harrier, merlin, larks, and numerous bird varieties, providing them better places to rest, build nests, and find food. Additionally, we anticipate seeing significant growth in amphibian populations such as frogs and newts, along with aquatic insects including water striders, damselflies, and dragonflies."

We are hopeful that our project will serve as a model for other farmers with similarly sized farms. Instead of planting crops, they could restore wetlands to enhance biodiversity. Our livestock continues to feed on the grass surrounding the restored peatland area. We invite fellow farmers to visit and witness this approach firsthand.

Financed by Clare County Council’s Biodiversity Office along with the Local Biodiversity Action Fund (National Parks and Wildlife Service), this initiative seeks to restore water levels across portions of a 27-acre peatland area.

The Knocknahila blanket bog had been harvested for turf over a century ago, yet this activity ultimately stopped. With time, the nearby drainage system deteriorated, resulting in parts of the bog naturally becoming wetter again as the clogged drains filled up with mosses and the groundwater level rose closer to the surface. These circumstances provided optimal conditions for Sphagnum moss—the primary creator of peat in bogs—to thrive and spread across the bog area.

In June 2023, it was determined that Mr. Tubridy’s peatland was appropriate for rewetting purposes, leading to the establishment of the Knocknahila Community Biodiversity Group by locals. This initiative successfully secured financing for conducting hydrological assessments with assistance from the RPS Group and Blackthorn Ecology. Such investigations confirmed minimal impact on adjacent properties and guaranteed that all perimeter drainage channels stayed accessible.

The execution of the project included setting up peat dams inside open ditches with the aim of increasing the water table so that Sphagnum moss could grow successfully.

A series of peat bunds, functioning akin to small dams to retain water within the bog, have been put in place to rewet specific areas of the bog. Consequently, Knocknahila Bog is now facilitating the growth of the scarce peatland ecosystem referred to as 'an active blanket bog'.

The project, executed by peatland specialist Kevin Farrell and monitored by the council’s biodiversity officer, led to the development of this newly redesigned habitat for various species including dragonflies, damselflies, frogs, smooth newts, and birds like the snipe, hen harrier, and merlin. Birds that have been decreasing in population, such as snipe and curlew, rely on this kind of environment for their nesting needs.

Mars Beaches Discovered: Rover Finds Evidence of Ancient Shorelines

  • SCIENTISTS UNCOVER MARTIAN FINDING THAT MIGHT EXPOSE EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE

This may not be the most apparent destination for a vacation.

But Mars once had sunny, sandy shores with calm, rippling waters, as indicated by a recent research findings.

Scientists have found indications of a 'getaway-like' setting on Mars, even though there appears to be no observable liquid water present. The surface of Mars as we see it today.

A global group of researchers utilized information from China China's Zhurong Mars rover aims to uncover concealed strata of rocks beneath the planet’s surface, which strongly indicate the existence of an ancient northern ocean.

The latest study provides the strongest indication so far that the planet previously had a substantial amount of water and a more conducive setting for life, according to the scientists.

The Zhurong rover landed on Mars In 2021, within the region called Utopia Planitia, it transmitted information about the local geology in quest of evidence indicating past presence of water or ice.

In contrast to other rovers, this one was fitted with ground-penetrating radar, enabling it to investigate Mars’ subsurface. By utilizing both low and high-frequency radar signals, it could delve into the Martian soil and pinpoint hidden rock structures beneath.

Through examining the buried layers of sediments, researchers can now construct a more comprehensive understanding of Earth's past.

Upon reviewing the radar data, the team discovered a comparable stratified arrangement akin to that found on terrestrial shorelines.

They observed 'foreshore' deposits, which are inclined layers sloping toward the ocean. These formations occur as sediments are transported by tidal movements and wave actions into extensive bodies of water.

When comparing the Martian data with radar pictures of shoreline formations on Earth, the team discovered remarkable parallels.

The dip angles measured on Mars were well within the range found in coastal sedimentary formations on Earth.

The discovery indicates that Mars was once a much wetter place than it is today, further supporting the hypothesis of a past ocean that encompassed a significant area around the north pole of the globe , the researchers said.

The research additionally offers fresh insights into the development of Mars' environment, indicating that a hospitable warm and moist era may have lasted for as long as hundreds of million years.

Benjamin Cardenas, co-author from Pennsylvania State University, stated, "We're discovering locations on Mars where old shorelines of ancient seas once stood and where former river deltas existed .

'We discovered signs of wind, waves, an abundance of sand — essentially, a perfect beach for a holiday.'

Dr. Michael Manga from the University of California, Berkeley, was also among the contributors to the paper.

The formations do not resemble sand dunes," he stated. "They are not similar to an impact crater nor do they appear to be lava flows. It was at this point that we began considering the possibility of ancient oceans.

The alignment of these elements parallels where the ancient coastline likely existed. These features possess the appropriate direction and gradient to back up the theory that an extensive body of water persisted long enough to form a sandy shore similar to a beach.

The research was documented in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal.

Mysterious Desert Pinnacles in Western Australia: A 100,000-Year-Old Puzzle Unveiled

To be amidst the towering limestone formations and ever-changing golden dunes of the Pinnacles Desert feels akin to standing on an alien world.

The Yued people from the area they refer to as "Kwong-kan" (sandy place) believe that these rocks symbolize the hands and fingers of warriors who were consumed by the desert after defying their elders and trespassing into a forbidden zone.

For many years, Western scientists have been discussing the timing and reasons behind the formation of the "Pinnacles," with dates proposed as far back as 25,000 years ago and extending beyond 200,000 years.

A recent study, featured in the journal Science Advances indicates that the majority of these impressive geological formations were sculpted approximately 100,000 years ago into the pillar-like structures visible today, some reaching heights of up to 5 meters with widths of around 2 meters.

According to Matej Lipar, the lead author of the study from the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, The Pinnacles are remnants of a larger block of limestone that gradually eroded away over time.

His collaborator from Curtin University, geologist Milo Barham, compared the stone formation to "Swiss cheese," noting that the cavities became so extensive that only the Pinnacles remained.

Dr Barham mentioned that the main difficulty for the researchers was figuring out how to examine an object that had been taken away.

What methods would you use to determine when something vanished?

Iron nodules provide dates

Located approximately two hours' drive north of Perth, The Pinnacles can be found along the world's longest stretch of coastal limestone. This formation extends about 1,000 kilometers from Shark Bay in the northwest almost to Albany in the south.

The extensive belt is referred to as the Tamala Limestone, which formed more than 2 million years ago.

Limestone, formed from seashells and sand deposited on shores long ago, is notably vulnerable to erosion and readily dissolves upon contact with substances like carbonic acid, often found in rainfall.

The leftover terrain is referred to as karst, which describes regions made up of eroded limestone or other minerals like gypsum and dolomite.

To determine when the Pinnacles were formed, the scientists examined other geochemical reactions that occurred during the dissolution of the limestone.

"Many people in Western Australia will recognise the red hues of the landscape, which is due to the iron content in the rocks," Dr Barham explained.

As the limestone in the region dissipated, Dr Lipar explained that iron-rich mineral nodules developed within the Pinnacles themselves.

"They are very tiny, which is why most people usually do not even see them," he explained.

The scientists determined the age of the iron nodules employing a technique known as U-Th/He dating. This approach gauges the buildup of helium atoms resulting from the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium.

Based on their findings, the scientists determined that approximately 102,000 years ago, there was an exceptionally humid phase lasting several millennia which caused the dissolution of the limestone, thus giving rise to the formation of the Pinnacles.

Although many of the columns at the Pinnacles are connected at the bottom Additionally, there are some features that seem to have been created through an alternative mechanism, with sand filling in areas where cavities had been dissolved away.

Mysteries remain

Although scientists might possess greater knowledge about the formation period of the Pinnacles, precisely why every pillar remained intact as the surrounding limestone eroded continues to be difficult to determine.

Doctor Barham mentioned that he believed, in certain cases, the creation of spires could potentially be attributed to random chance, based on the initial positioning of openings within the limestone.

He asked, 'Was there perhaps some kind of framework overhead that prevented water from entering that section of limestone?'

Here are a few points we probably still need to uncover. The Pinnacles hold numerous mysteries for us to delve into.

Dr Lipar mentioned that if iron nodules are found in comparable karst areas worldwide, these could also serve as dating tools for those locations, thereby providing greater insights into Earth’s historical climates.

He mentioned areas such as the Caribbean, along with the Mediterranean islands and coastlines… and South Australia, where all structures are built from comparable rocks.
