Fahad Sayad (الفهد الصياد)

The fastest land animal on Earth, reaching speeds of 112 km/h over short distances across African and Iranian grasslands. Slender build with a deep chest, long legs, and distinctive black tear-stripe markings. Unlike other big cats, cheetahs vocalize with chirps and purrs. Vulnerable, with only ~7,000 remaining due to habitat fragmentation and competition with larger predators.

Mycena fagetorum is a small, delicate agaric fungus in the family Mycenaceae, assessed as Near Threatened (NT). It grows on decaying beech (Fagus) litter and woody debris in mature beech woodland habitats. Its near-threatened status reflects dependence on undisturbed beech forest ecosystems that have declined through logging and land conversion.
