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.

Sphacelaria tribuloides es un alga parda pequena y en mechones que forma colonias compactas en sustratos rocosos y sobre algas de mayor tamano. Habita zonas rocosas intermareales y submareales poco profundas en mares templados y tropicales de todo el mundo. Este alga fotosintizadora se reproduce mediante caracteristicos propulos en forma de estrella y coloniza superficies rocosas marinas.
