Bereifter Anis-Trichterling

Clitocybe albofragrans is a small, white-capped agaric mushroom in the family Tricholomataceae, noted for its delicate fragrance and fragile fruitbodies. It grows in leaf litter and humus-rich soils in deciduous and mixed forests. Its conservation status is listed as Data Deficient, reflecting limited information on its distribution and population trends.

Kaiserpinguin

The world's largest penguin, emperor penguins stand up to 1.2 meters and weigh 45 kg, inhabiting the Antarctic continent in some of the most extreme conditions on Earth. They breed in midwinter darkness at temperatures below -60°C, with males incubating single eggs on their feet under a brood pouch for 65 days while females are at sea. Their huddling behavior — cycling individuals through the warm center of thousands-strong groups — is a masterclass in cooperative survival.
