Common Cicadabird

<em>Edolisoma tenuirostre</em>, commonly known as the common cicadabird, is a bird species with a documented record from Norway. It typically inhabits aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments, often associated with forest canopies, forest edges, and wooded areas in its native range across the Australasian region. The species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, indicating that it is not currently at risk of significant population decline at a global level. Common cicadabird belongs to the genus <em>Edolisoma</em> within the family Campephagidae. It is a slender, cuckoo-shrike-like bird that typically forages for insects and other invertebrates in the forest canopy, often remaining inconspicuous due to its cryptic coloration and preference for the upper tree strata. Males and females typically exhibit marked sexual dimorphism in plumage. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body length, and mass of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The species' broad native range across Australasia contributes to its currently stable conservation status.

Orca común

El mayor miembro de la familia de los delfínidos, la orca (Orcinus orca) puede alcanzar hasta 9 metros de longitud y 6 toneladas de peso, y se encuentra en todos los océanos desde el Ártico hasta el Antártico. Es un depredador apex que vive en grupos matrilineales con dialectos distintos, estrategias de caza y tradiciones culturales que difieren entre poblaciones. Algunas poblaciones se especializan en peces, otras en mamíferos marinos. Sin depredadores naturales, las orcas ocupan la cima de todas las cadenas tróficas marinas que habitan.
