Mermasangre

<em>Salvia officinalis</em>, common sage or garden sage, is an aromatic, evergreen shrubby perennial in the family Lamiaceae. Native to the Mediterranean region, particularly the Dalmatian coast and surrounding areas, it has been cultivated for thousands of years and is now widely naturalized across Europe, Asia, the Americas, and elsewhere. The plant typically grows in well-drained, alkaline soils on rocky hillsides, scrublands, and open woodland edges in its native range, and thrives in sunny garden beds and herb gardens in cultivation. Common sage produces distinctive grey-green, wrinkled, aromatic leaves rich in essential oils, and attractive violet to blue-purple flowers in whorled spikes that attract bees and other pollinators. It is not currently evaluated by the IUCN, reflecting limited formal assessment rather than documented conservation concern. The plant is among the most important culinary herbs in European cooking and has extensive traditional medicinal applications, including as an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agent. The species typically blooms from late spring through early summer. It is drought-tolerant once established and is often cultivated in Mediterranean-style gardens worldwide. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body measurements, and detailed ecological dietary interactions remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases.

Águila real

Entre los rapaces más poderosos y ampliamente distribuidos del mundo, las águilas reales tienen envergaduras de hasta 2,2 metros y habitan terrenos montañosos del Hemisferio Norte. Cazadores aéreos supremos, utilizan el vuelo en planeo y picadas pronunciadas a velocidades superiores a 200 km/h para capturar conejos, liebres, ardillas terrestres y ocasionalmente ciervos jóvenes y zorros. En muchas culturas han sido centrales para las tradiciones de cetrería que abarcan milenios.
