barrila borde

<em>Salsola kali</em>, common saltwort or prickly glasswort, is an annual herb in the family Amaranthaceae, with a broad native distribution spanning coastal and inland saline habitats across Africa, Europe, and Asia, and widely introduced in North and South America where it has become an invasive species in many regions. The plant typically inhabits sandy beaches, coastal dunes, saline inland steppes, disturbed ground, roadsides, and agricultural margins. It is highly salt-tolerant, accumulating sodium in its tissues, a trait that historically made it a source of soda ash used in glassmaking, giving rise to common names such as glasswort. Common saltwort produces small, succulent, spine-tipped leaves and inconspicuous flowers, and when dry the plant breaks off at the base and tumbles in the wind, dispersing seeds widely — a behavior that has given rise to the iconic image of the tumbleweed in North American popular culture. The species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It provides food for birds and invertebrates in coastal habitats. In North America it has expanded significantly into disturbed arid habitats, where it is considered invasive. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body measurements, and dietary data remain poorly documented in standardized databases.

Tigre

El felino mas grande del mundo, el tigre puede superar los 300 kg y habita bosques desde el Extremo Oriente ruso hasta el Sudeste Asiatico. Es un depredador solitario de emboscada con su caracteristico pelaje naranja y negro a rayas que proporciona camuflaje entre la luz filtrada. Esta en Peligro Critico, con menos de 4.000 individuos que quedan en estado silvestre debido a la caza furtiva y la deforestacion.
