Alguacil verde

<em>Paragomphus genei</em>, commonly known as the common hooktail, is a dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, suggesting a stable and widespread population. The species is noted to occupy virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats within its range, reflecting considerable ecological generalism typical of many gomphid dragonflies. Specific country-level distribution records for this species are not detailed in current data, though the breadth of habitat use implies a relatively wide geographic range across suitable regions. Diet information for this species is not available in current records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

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.
