Alexandrium minutumは麻痺性貝毒の原因となるサキシトキシンを産生することで知られる小型の装甲海洋渦鞭毛藻である。世界中の温帯から温暖な沿岸・河口域に生息する。有害藻類ブルームを形成し、濾過摂食性二枚貝の体内に毒素が蓄積する原因となる。

jaguar

アメリカ大陸最大のネコ科動物で、体重は最大100kgに達し、がっしりとした筋肉質の体型と特有のロゼット模様の毛皮を持つ。メキシコから南アメリカにかけて分布し、アマゾンやパンタナルが主要生息地となる。優れた水泳能力を持つ頂点捕食者であり、獲物個体数の調節に重要な役割を担う。森林破壊により生息域が縮小し、準絶滅危惧に分類されている。
