Ko ngā heihei kei roto i ngā kararehe tino whakatipuria o te ao, me ngā piriona heihei, parera, tāki, me ngā kēkē e whāngaihia ana, e patua ana i ia tau. I roto i ngā pāmu wheketere, ko ngā heihei e whakatupuria ana mō te mīti (ngā heihei parai) ka whakarerekētia te ira kia tere te tipu, ka arahi ki ngā āhua kino, te ngoikore o ngā okana, me te kore e taea te hikoi tika. He momo whakamamae rerekē te mamae o ngā heihei whānau hua, e herea ana ki ngā whare herehere, ki ngā whare witi kī tonu rānei, e kore ai e taea e rātou te hora i ō rātou parirau, te whai wāhi ki ngā whanonga taiao, te mawhiti rānei i te ahotea o te whakaputa hua tonu.
He rite tonu te nanakia o ngā tāki me ngā parera, e whakatipuria ana i roto i ngā whare kuiti me te kore e taea te haere ki waho. Ko te whakatipuranga whiriwhiri mō te tipu tere ka hua ake he raruraru angaanga, he kopa, me te mamae manawa. Ko ngā kēkē, ina koa, ka whakamahia mō ngā mahi pēnei i te whakaputa foie gras, i reira ka puta te mamae nui me ngā raruraru hauora roa mā te whāngai kaha. I roto i ngā pūnaha ahuwhenua heihei katoa, ko te kore o te whakarei ake i te taiao me ngā āhuatanga noho taiao ka whakaiti i ō rātou oranga ki ngā huringa o te herenga, te ahotea, me te mate wawe.
Ko ngā tikanga patu e whakanui ana i tēnei mamae. Ko ngā manu ka herea ki raro, ka whakapōreareatia—he maha ngā wā kāore e whai hua—kātahi ka patua i runga i ngā raina whakaputa tere e neke haere ana, ā, he maha kei te mōhio tonu i te wā e mahi ana. E whakaatu ana ēnei mahi kino pūnaha i te utu huna o ngā hua heihei, e pā ana ki te oranga kararehe me te pānga whānui ki te taiao o te ahuwhenua ahumahi.
Mā te tirotiro i te āhua o ngā heihei, e whakaatu ana tēnei wāhanga i te hiahia nui ki te whakaaro anō i tō tātou whanaungatanga ki ēnei kararehe. E aro ana ki ō rātou hinengaro, ō rātou oranga pāpori me ngā oranga kare ā-roto, me te kawenga matatika ki te whakamutu i te whānui o te whakatikatika i a rātou.
Ko ngā heihei e ora ana i ngā āhuatanga whakamataku o ngā whare heihei, o ngā whare patu kararehe rānei, he maha tonu ngā wā ka nui ake te tukino i a rātou e haria ana ki te whare patu. Ko ēnei heihei, i whakatupuria kia tere te tipu hei mahi mīti, ka ora i roto i te noho herehere nui me te mamae tinana. Whai muri i te manawanui ki ngā āhuatanga kiki, paru i roto i ngā whare patu, he moemoeā kino rawa tā rātou haerenga ki te whare patu. I ia tau, tekau miriona heihei e whara ana i ngā parirau me ngā waewae nā te whakahaere uaua i a rātou i te wā e haria ana. He maha ngā wā ka whiua haeretia ēnei manu pakarukaru, ka hē te whakahaere, ka whara, ka mamae. I roto i te maha o ngā wā, ka mate rātou i te toto, kāore e taea te ora i te mamae o te noho ki roto i ngā pouaka kiki rawa. Ko te haerenga ki te whare patu, e taea ana te toro atu mō ngā rau maero, ka tāpiri atu ki te mamae. Ka tākaihia ngā heihei ki roto i ngā whare herehere, kāore he wāhi hei neke, ā, kāore he kai, he wai rānei e hoatu ki a rātou i te wā …
