Azure Bluet
アジュールブルーイット(Coenagrion puella)はヨーロッパの止水・緩流水域に広く分布する小型のイトトンボ科のトンボで、雄の鮮やかな青と黒の模様が美しい。IUCNレッドリストでは軽度懸念(LC)に分類されており、池沼・運河・緩やかな小川の水草周りで交尾・産卵する。幼虫は水中で生育し、成虫は水辺の草地・葦原で昆虫を捕食する、淡水湿地生態系の重要な構成要素である。
Bamboo bear
ジャイアントパンダ(Ailuropoda melanoleuca)は中国中部の山岳竹林に生息し、体重最大125キログラムになるクマ科の動物で、食肉目に分類されながら食事の99%を竹が占める特異な食性を持つ。偽の親指(橈側種子骨)を使って竹の茎を把握し、1日14時間もの採食時間を費やす。2016年にIUCNレッドリストで絶滅危惧から危急(VU)へ改善されており、保護繁殖プログラムと自然保護区の設置が個体数回復に貢献している。
