Iintaba zaseUdzungwa

“Ikhaya kwiinkawu ze-Red Colobus''

Amagqabantshintshi ngeentaba zaseUdzungwa

Iintaba zaseUdzungwa ziintaba ezikumazantsi embindi Thanzaniya. Iintaba zinjalo kakhulu ngaphakathi kwiNgingqi yase-Iringa, kumazantsi ekomkhulu laseTanzania Dodoma. Iintaba zaseUdzungwa ziyinxalenye yeeNtaba zeArc eseMpuma kwaye zilikhaya kuluntu lwezityalo nezilwanyana ezohlukeneyo. amanani amakhulu e iintlobo ezihlala zikho.

Iintaba zihlala amaHehe, kwaye igama elithi Udzungwa lisuka kwigama lesiKihehe elithi “Wadzungwa,” elithetha abantu abahlala ezintabeni. I-Iringa yindawo enkulu yokuhlala ezintabeni kunye nekomkhulu lengingqi.

Geography

Iintaba ze-Undzungwa zithatha indawo eyi-16,131.40 km2, eyona inkulu kwiindidi zeArc eseMpuma. Eyona ncopho iphakamileyo kuluhlu yiLuhombero kwiimitha ezingama-2,579 (iinyawo eziyi-8,461). Uluhlu lweentaba lunabela ngokubanzi kumntla-mpuma-ntshona-ntshona. I-Usangu Plain imi kumntla-ntshona, igalelwa ngamanzi nguMlambo iRuaha Omkhulu namaqukuqela awo.

Umlambo omkhulu iRuaha wohlula iintaba zaseUdzungwa nezaseRubeho kunye neUvidunda ngasemntla-mpuma. Intlambo yoMlambo iKilombero imi emazantsi nasemazantsi-mpuma.

Kumzantsi-ntshona, uMsantsa weMakambako wohlula iiNtaba zaseUdzungwa kwiKipengere Range. Zombini Imilambo emikhulu iRuaha kunye neKilombero yimijelo yomlambo iRufiji, ophumela kulwandlekazi lwaseIndiya. Umlambo iLukosi usuka kumbindi wolu luhlu uze uqukuqelele ngasempuma kwiRuaha enkulu. Umlambo iLittle Ruaha nemijelo yawo umpompoza kakhulu

kwinxalenye esentshona yodederhu, ukuya kuthi xhaxhe ngentla yeRuwa enkulu.

Imozulu

Iintaba zase-Udzungwa zithintela imimoya yokufuma evela kuLwandlekazi lwaseIndiya kwaye zifumana imvula eninzi kunezingqongileyo

iindawo eziphantsi. uninzi ye imvula ibakho ngoNovemba ukuya kuMeyi kwixesha lemvula, nangona inkungu kunye nemvula encinci ibakho kwiindawo eziphakamileyo ngexesha lonyaka elomileyo. iinyanga. Imvula iphezulu kumathambeka asemazantsi nakumazantsi-mpuma ajongene ne-Indian Ocean kwaye emazantsi ezintabeni, apho imvula inetha emantla nasentshona. Amaqondo obushushu ayabanda kwiindawo eziphakamileyo.

ijiyoloji

Iintaba zase-Udzungwa, kunye nezinye kwi-Eastern Arc, zenziwe ngamatye e-Precambrian yamandulo. ukuba zaye iphakanyisiwe kwizigidi zeminyaka ngokulandela impazamo. Elona xesha lamva nje lokunyuswa liqale kwiminyaka ezigidi ezingama-30 eyadlulayo, kodwa inkqubo yeempazamo kunye nenkqubo yokunyusa inokuba indala kakhulu. Imihlaba ephuma kula matye amandulo ayichumi njengemihlaba emincinane yentaba-mlilo ekwiintaba ezisemantla nasentshona.

Udzungwa Flora and fauna

Malunga nezigidi ezingamashumi amathathu eminyaka eyadlulayo, lo mmandla yagqunywa ngamahlathi ashinyeneyo. Ebudeni bexesha elipholileyo nelokubalele kwiminyaka emalunga nezigidi ezilishumi eyadlulayo, amahlathi asemazantsi aguqulwa abe ngamathafa, eshiya udederhu lweentaba njengeziqithi apho amahlathi ashinyeneyo aqhubeka echumile. Ukuzingisa kwexesha elide kwemozulu efumileyo nokuba qelele kodederhu lweentaba nganye kuye kwakhokelela ekubeni kubekho izinto ezininzi eziphilayo nezityalo nezilwanyana ezahlukahlukeneyo. I-Udzungwa kunye nezinye iintaba ze-Eastern Arc zineentlobo ngeentlobo zezinto eziphilayo eziphezulu kakhulu, kunye neentlobo ezininzi zeentlobo ezihlala zikho (ngaphezu kwama-25 epesenti yeentlobo zezilwanyana ezinomqolo). 10 ipesenti yazo ikhuselwe yi-Udzungwa Mountains National Park kunye ne-Udzungwa Scarp Nature Forest Reserve.

Iintaba zaseUdzungwa zigutyungelwe enamahlathi ashinyeneyo, ihlathi lemvula lasemontane, ihlathi lemiombo, ithafa lengca, kunye namadlelo ashushu.

Amahlathi asuka kwi-300 ukuya kwi-2579 yeemitha ukuphakama kwaye ayahluka ngokubunjwa kunye nohlobo lweentlobo kunye nokuphakama kunye nemvula. Amathambeka asempuma nakumazantsi-mpuma amanzi afumana imvula engakumbi kuLwandlekazi lwaseIndiya kwaye axhasa amahlathi ahlala eluhlaza kumazantsi ethambeka; amathambeka awomileyo asentshona nakumntla-ntshona anamahlathi emiombo avuthulukayo kunye nemithi emiphakamo esezantsi kunye namahlathi ahlala eluhlaza kuphela kwindawo ephakamileyo.

KuBanzi iindawo zehlathi kwithafa eliphakathi babe isusiwe kwezolimo namadlelo. Uhlalutyo lwemifanekiso yesathelayithi ithathiwe phakathi kuka-1999 no-2003 bafumanisa ukuba I-1353 km2 yeentaba zazisagutyungelwe kwihlathi elihlala liluhlaza.

Kwiintaba kukho izilwanyana ezanyisayo ezininzi, kuquka iAbbott's duiker (Cephalophus spadix), iKipunji (Rungwecebus kipunji), kunye neUdzungwa red colobus (Cercocebus galleries). Elephants (Loxodonta africana) ziyafumaneka emahlathini ecaleni kwethambeka elisemazantsi.

Ingwevu sengi (Rhynchocyon udzungwensis) luhlobo lwendlovu ehlala ihleli ezintabeni. Ihlathi lase Udzungwa partridge (Xenoperdix udzungwensis) nalo lihlala likhona, kwaye izihlobo zayo ezisondeleyo zibonakala ngathi ziinduli zase Asia.

Nangona amaqela amabini eentaba ahlukeneyo ngokwendalo, iiNtaba zeArc zaseMpuma zabelana ngeentlobo ezininzi kunye nezityalo kunye neendawo eziphakamileyo zaseMazantsi, ezisemazantsi-ntshona ngaphesheya kweMakambako Gap. Yomibini yimimandla yase-Afromontane, ikhaya leentlobo zeentlobo zeentaba kwaye zahluke ngokwendalo kwiindawo eziphantsi ezikufuphi. Imozulu yeendawo eziphakamileyo zaseMazantsi iphenjelelwa ngakumbi ngaseLake Malawi kunokuba by kuLwandlekazi lwaseIndiya. Ezinye iintlobo zeentaba ezinqamlezileyo, kuquka i-Kipunji kunye ne-Kipengere seedeaters (Crithagra melanochrous), zihlala kwiiNtaba ze-Udzungwa kunye ne-Kipengere Range.

Isele yokutshiza iKihansi (Nectophrynoides asperginis), leyo bekunjalo fu maneka Kuphela malunga nengxangxasi kuMlambo iKihansi, yaphela endle ngo-2009 xa idama elingasentla latshintsha indawo yalo yokuhlala.

Amaxoxo analo ukususela ngoko zibuyiselwe emva kwenkqubo eyimpumelelo yokufuya abantu abathinjiweyo.

Udzungwa Iindawo ezikhuselweyo kunye nolondolozo

Iindawo ezikhuselweyo ziquka i-Udzungwa Mountains National Park (2088.69 km2), Udzungwa Scarp, Kisinga-Rugaro, West Kilombero forests reserves, kunye neSanje Falls. Kunokwenzeka ukutyelela i-Udzungwa Mountains National Park kunye hamba uhambo kunye nokuhamba. Le paki ayinazo iindlela ezidlulayo ngesithuthi kwaye ifikeleleka ngeenyawo kuphela. Iindlela zokuhamba ziyohluka, ukusuka kwindlela emfutshane kunye nelula yeyure enye iSonjo Waterfall inyuka ukuya kunzima kakhulu Uhambo lweentsuku ezi-6 kwiLumemo Trail. Eyona ndlela idumileyo yiSanje Waterfalls Trail, ethatha malunga neeyure ezine ukuyigqiba.

INgxowa-mali yeHlabathi ebanzi yezeNdalo iyasebenza kunye noluntu lwasekuhlaleni ukukhusela ipaki nokubonelela ngenkxaso yolondolozo nolawulo, ukubeka iliso, uphando, kunye namanyathelo okhenketho lwendalo. Uncedo loluntu lwasekuhlaleni lukhuthazwa ngokubanika ithuba lokufumana izixhobo ezifana nokutheza iinkuni, ukuvunwa kwezityalo zamayeza, kunye

ukuqokelela ingca yokufulela.

I-Uzungwa Scarp Nature Forest Reserve (USNFR) ifumaneka kwiintaba zase-Udzungwa ngaphakathi koMmandla we-Iringa (kwiZithili zaseKilolo naseMufindi) kunye neSithili saseKilombero kwiNgingqi yaseMorogoro. Lo vimba likhaya iinkawu Red Colobus kunye ezahlukeneyo uhlaza, kuquka nehlathi elide, elitofotofo elingaphantsi kwe-montane. Ezinye izinto ezikhangayo zabakhenkethi ezifumaneka kulo mmandla wogcino ziimpawu ezikhethekileyo ze-canopy, izilwanyana zasendle ezinjengeendlovu kunye neenyathi, iintaka ezifudukayo, indawo enomtsalane, imiqolomba, iingxangxasi (Idasi, Lutalawa, Msingusi, Kiimbi, Ikungwe, Udagaji, Mipimati), iziza zembali kunye nenkcubeko (Madege, Lendi, Imelwageni, Kisupyo, Lugupolilote, Lusaka, Ilali, iLusaka, ilali imisebenzi yokhenketho lwendalo.

Abakhenkethi banokwenza le misebenzi ilandelayo ye-ecotourism: ukuqubha kumachibi endalo, ukuphuma nokutshona kwelanga ukubukela, ukukhwela intaba, ukuhamba ngeenyawo, uhambo lwe-safari, amava enkcubeko kunye nemveli, ukubukela iintaka, uphando kunye nokhenketho olufundisayo, ukufota, kunye nenkampu.

Ufikelelo

Zintathu iindlela zokungena kwindawo yogcino. Eyokuqala Nye udlula eIpogolo udlula kwisithili saseKilolo ukuya kwilali yaseUluti, oko ikukuthi malunga ne-100km ukusuka kwidolophu yase-Iringa. Eyesibini idlula kwisithili saseMufindi idlula kwiWadi yaseMapanda ukuya kwilali yaseUhafiwa, malunga neekhilomitha ezingama-130 ukusuka kwilokishi yaseMafinga. Eyesithathu isuka kuMasipala waseMorogoro idlula kwidolophu yaseMikumi ukuya kwidolophu yase-Ifakara, emva koko iChita isiya kwilali yaseUdagaji.

Emalunga nama-80km.

In Umasipala wase-Iringa, Nantsi lapho Isikhululo seenqwelomoya saseNduli, esisebenza ngeenqwelomoya ezicwangcisiweyo nezingacwangciswanga/eziqeshiweyo ezisuka kwizixeko ezikhulu ezifana neDar es Salaam, iArusha kunye neKilimanjaro. Umgama osuka kwidolophu yase-Iringa ukuya e-Uzungwa Scarp Nature Forest Reserve umalunga ne-120 km.

Ezinye iindawo ezinomtsalane kubakhenkethi fu maneka kufuphi Uzungwa Nature Forest Reserve zi Indawo yoLondolozo lweNdalo yaseKilombero, iPaki yeSizwe yeeNtaba zaseUdzungwa, iPaki yeSizwe yaseNyerere, kunye neSikhululo soMbane saseKidatu.

Abakhenkethi abeza kwindawo yogcino nge-Iringa nabo banethuba lokutyelela iindawo zokhenketho ezikufutshane ezifana Iziko lezeMbali laseKalenga, iSimila seArchaeological Site, kunye neRuaha National Park.
