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。
Cheetah
地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。
