Rana sureña de Coloma

<em>Noblella coloma</em>, commonly known as Coloma's Noble-Rainfrog, is an amphibian species belonging to the genus <em>Noblella</em> within the family Craugastoridae. This species is classified as Data Deficient, indicating that insufficient information is available to assess its conservation status accurately, and that it may be at risk but cannot be categorized without further data. It inhabits freshwater-associated environments, moist forests, and wetland habitats typical of neotropical regions. Rain frogs in this family are direct-developing amphibians, meaning they bypass a free-living tadpole stage and hatch as miniature froglets directly from terrestrially deposited eggs. This life history strategy is well-suited to humid forest floors and leaf litter microhabitats where moisture is available. Specific country-level distributional data are not recorded in current documentation. Dietary information specific to this species has not been documented; however, small frogs of this type typically prey on small invertebrates. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The Data Deficient classification underscores the need for targeted field surveys to determine population size and distribution.

koala

Icónico marsupial del este y sureste de Australia, los koalas pesan hasta 15 kg y pasan hasta 22 horas diarias durmiendo para conservar energía de su dieta de hojas de eucalipto, baja en calorías. Altamente especializados para procesar los compuestos tóxicos del eucalipto que matarían a la mayoría de los demás mamíferos, poseen microbiomas intestinales únicamente adaptados para la desintoxicación. Clasificado como En Peligro en 2022, con poblaciones diezmadas por la enfermedad de clamidia, la deforestación y el cambio climático.
