Chita

El guepardo es el animal terrestre más rápido de la Tierra, alcanzando velocidades de 112 km/h en distancias cortas en las praderas de África e Irán. Complexión esbelta con un pecho profundo, patas largas y distintivas marcas negras en forma de lágrima. A diferencia de otros grandes felinos, los guepardos vocalizan con chirridos y ronroneos. Vulnerable, con solo ~7.000 individuos restantes debido a la fragmentación del hábitat y la competencia con depredadores más grandes.

Kocuria arsenatis es una actinobacteria Gram-positiva de la familia Micrococcaceae, aislada de entornos ricos en arsénico. Su tolerancia a los compuestos de arsenato la hace de interés para comprender la supervivencia microbiana en hábitats contaminados por metales pesados.
