rabo de lobo

The common broomrape (<em>Orobanche minor</em>) is a parasitic flowering plant with an exceptionally wide global distribution, occurring across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America, and typically inhabiting tropical and subtropical forests and grasslands. This species is classified as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List, indicating that its populations may be declining in some parts of its range. As a member of the family Orobanchaceae, the common broomrape is a root parasite that attaches to the roots of host plants, most commonly members of the legume and carrot families, from which it draws all of its nutrients. It lacks chlorophyll and therefore cannot photosynthesize, making it entirely dependent on its host for survival. The species often produces spikes of yellowish or purplish tubular flowers above the soil surface during spring and summer across its diverse geographic range. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

Jaguar

El felino más grande de las Américas, alcanzando hasta 100 kg con una constitución robusta y musculosa y un pelaje con rosetas características. Se encuentra desde México hasta América del Sur, con núcleos poblacionales en el Amazonas y el Pantanal. Nadadores poderosos y depredadores apex, los jaguares desempeñan un papel fundamental en la regulación de las poblaciones de presas. Categorizado como Casi Amenazado, su área de distribución se contrae debido a la deforestación.
