Tum Pla Yon (isicupho somfula i-Mun) — isicupho soqalo esilukwe ngokulula, esinobude obufika ku-8 m, umvalo wangaphansi ongama-intshi angu-6, simiswe siqonde ezinsikeni zoqalo ezingamamitha angu-15 emfuleni i-Mun

"Umlomo womvalo uyinhliziyo yesicupho, kufanele welukwe uminyene ngoba i-pla yon ingena ngakulolu hlangothi." (ศูนย์มานุษยวิทยาสิรินธร, Isikhungo Se-Anthropology SaseSirindhorn, umbhali พิชชา ทองขลิบ (Phitcha Thongkhlip), CC BY 4.0)

Luka uqalo ngokulula, uqale engaphansi lesicupho, elibizwa nangokuthi umlomo womvalo (pak nga): indingilizi elukwe yaminyana enobubanzi obungama-intshi angu-6. Ingaphansi likhulu futhi lelukwa liyindilinga njengekhaya lezinkukhu.

Uma ingaphansi nohlaka sekulungile, lengisa isicupho siqonde esihlahleni ukuze ukweluka kube lula. Qhubeka weluka njengekhoni ende kuze kufike emlonyeni wesicupho; ububanzi bungu-50 cm nobude bufika kumamitha angu-8. Kuthatha cishe isonto elilodwa.

Khetha amanzi agelezayo. Gxumeka izinti zoqalo ezi-5, ngasinye sinobude bamamitha angu-15, ziqine phansi emfuleni, ushiye isikhala sengaphansi lesicupho. Letha isicupho esiboshelwe esigodweni esiwelayo, usimise siqonde ukuze umlomo ube ngaphezu kwamanzi cishe ngesandla esisodwa esinwetshiwe (kusukela esithupheni kuya kucikicane); bopha isigodo esiwelayo ezinsikeni. Tshuza uhlole umvalo, bese ugcina ingaphansi lesicupho limamitha angu-1-2 ngaphezu kwaphansi komfula ukuze izinhlanzi zingene kalula. Lokhu kusho ukutshuza emfuleni onomsinga: ungalokothi ukwenze wedwa, futhi ungakwenzi lapho amanzi egcwele nomsinga unamandla.

Izithombe zokweluka, ukuthwala nokucupha i-tum pla yon yangempela e-Khong Chiam, Ubon Ratchathani (ศูนย์มานุษยวิทยาสิรินธร, Isikhungo Se-Anthropology SaseSirindhorn, umbhali พิชชา ทองขลิบ (Phitcha Thongkhlip), CC BY 4.0).

Cupha isicupho kusukela ngoJuni kuya ku-Agasti; ama-pla yon abhukuda angene ngomvalo ongezansi. Emva kwalokho amanzi ayagcwala, umsinga ube namandla nemvula ibe ningi, ngakho isicupho asisafaneleki.

Ubufakazi be-tum pla yon bungabonakala emidwebweni esemadwaleni ase-Pha Taem e-Khong Chiam. I-pla yon iyinhlanzi ende cishe ngama-intshi angu-4, enekhanda elincane, ekhuluphele futhi enombala wesiliva; yomiswa elangeni noma yenziwe isobho, futhi namuhla ivelakancane kakhulu. Lokhu kusho ukutshuza emfuleni onomsinga: ungalokothi ukwenze wedwa, futhi ungakwenzi lapho amanzi egcwele nomsinga unamandla.
