Gorila Occidental

El primate más grande del mundo, los gorilas occidentales pesan hasta 180 kg y habitan los bosques tropicales y subtropicales del África ecuatorial. Principalmente herbívoros, viven en grupos familiares liderados por un macho de espalda plateada que protege la tropa y media en los conflictos sociales. En Peligro Crítico, con poblaciones amenazadas por la deforestación, la caza furtiva para la venta de carne de monte y los brotes del virus del Ébola.

Thermomonas haemolytica es una bacteria moderadamente termofila notable por su actividad hemolitica, es decir, puede lisar globulos rojos en condiciones de laboratorio. Habita suelos calidos y ambientes de compost y tolera temperaturas superiores a los rangos mesofilicos tipicos. Este quimioheterotrofo aerobico degrada materia organica en habitats termicamente enriquecidos.
