Ithimayizwa into eyethusayo besebuphakama. iNehi ukuphakama kwalo ngungalinganiselwa ku 40-50cm, bese kuthi ubude balo ukusuka emahlombe kuya emsileni kube ngango 20-25cm. Selilonke liba ngu 65-80cm ubude ukusuka ekhaleni ukuya emsileni. Linesisindo esingu8-12kg. Ithi ayifane neMpisi encane enemigqa uma uyibuka.Idla nhloboni yokudla
Loluhlobo lweMpisi engajwayelekile idla izintuthwane. Namazinyo alo ayizicaba ngaphandle kwalawa amane amade okuyenza ingakwazi ukuhlafuna inyama kepha idle izintuthwane kuphela. Isebenzisa amazinyo amade uma ilwelwa noma ivikela indawo yayo kwamanye amaNehi. Lidla izinhlobo ezimbili kuphela lwezintuthwane ezingatholakali ebusika okwenza iNehi lishintshele kolunye uhlobo.Ngenxa yokudla lezinhlobo ezimbili zezintuthwane iyaphoqeleka ukuthi lihlale endaweni lapho kutholakala khona loluhlobo lwezintuthwane eziningi. Ngobusuku obubodwa uNehi likwazi ukudla 200 000 – 300 000 yezintuthwane. Lisebenzisa ikhono lalo lokulalela ukuthola izintuthwane emhlabathini maqede lisebenzise ulimi lwalo olunamfukayo ukuzidla.

Ukuzala
Lezilwane azihlali ndawonye ezezinsikazi nezamaduna, zinamahloni okwenza kubenzinyana ukuzithola. Ngenxa yokucasha kwazo alukho ulwazi oluningi ngempatho yazo kepha kukholakala ukuthi zenza imidlwane unyaka wonke. Imitha izinsuku ezingu90 kuya ku100 ikhiqize imidlwane emibili kuya kwemine. Uma imidlwane ingasanceli abazali bobabili badlisa imidlwane yazo izintuthwane ezetshisiwe.Indlela ezizphatha ngayo
iNehi lizingela ukudla ebusuku lodwa, ahlala ndawonye ngesthithi sokukhulisa noma ukwenza imidlwane. Aye abonakale ehamba ngamaqembu amancane noma ngamabili kwezinye izinkathi yize kungavamile. iNehi alikaze lajwayele ukuhamba ngama qembu njengeziMpisi ngengxa yohlobo lwezintuthwane eziizidlayo. iNehi lidla lodwa ngoba alidli inhlobo yokudla okuhlukaniselwayo noma engakwazi ukuphathela amanye Livamise ukuhlala emigodini emikhudlwana noma lihlale emigodini eshiywe iNgungumbane noma iSambane. iNehi liyakwazi ukuzimbela umgodi umangabe aliwutholi elizohlala kuwo.Izindawo lapho etholakala kuzona
Ayatholakala kusuka empumalanga kuya eningizimu neAfrika, kepha azizwani nezindawo ezingasogwini. Lezilwane aziyona ingozi kanti futhi ziyakwazi ukuphila ezindaweni eziningi ezivulekile, izinezikhotha zikukhonzile ukuzihlalela emigodini. Kunezinhlobo ezimbili zamaNehi eyodwa itholakala eNingizimu Afrika kuthi enye inhlobo itholakale kusukela eTanzania ukunyukela enhla eGibhithe. Ayatholaka ezikhotheni zase Botswana, Karoo nase Northen Cape.AmaPhuzu Asemqoka
