Abubilla arbórea cimitarra

<em>Rhinopomastus cyanomelas</em>, the common scimitarbill, is a bird in the family Phoeniculidae, order Bucerotiformes, widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa. It inhabits dry woodland, savanna, and bushveld, typically favoring areas with tall trees that provide nest cavities. Despite limited geographic data in some databases, this species is well-documented across a broad African range from East Africa southward through southern Africa. The common scimitarbill is named for its long, sharply curved bill, which it uses to probe bark crevices for insects, larvae, and spiders. It typically forages alone or in pairs and is known for its loud, repeated whistling calls. <em>Rhinopomastus cyanomelas</em> is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations considered stable across its extensive range. The species is generally not considered threatened, though localized habitat loss could affect populations in some areas. Biological traits for this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature, with limited published data on average lifespan, precise body measurements, weight, and detailed dietary composition beyond its general insectivorous behavior.

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.
