Among the most acrobatic of the great whales, humpback whales are renowned for their complex, haunting songs sung by males during breeding season — some lasting hours and evolving over time. Reaching 16 meters and 30 tonnes, they undertake the longest migrations of any mammal. Found in all oceans, humpbacks feed on krill and small fish using cooperative bubble-net feeding. Populations have largely recovered from historic whaling.

coqueret à feuilles longues

The common ground cherry, <em>Physalis longifolia</em>, is a flowering plant belonging to the family Solanaceae, the nightshade family. It is a herbaceous species typically found across Sweden and the United States. Within its range, the species inhabits a variety of terrestrial environments where its lantern-like papery husks enclose small edible fruits. As a member of the genus Physalis, it is related to tomatillos and cape gooseberries, sharing the characteristic inflated calyx that surrounds the berry at maturity. The species typically grows in open disturbed areas, roadsides, fields, and grassland margins. No dietary information has been provided for this species. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
