ミンククジラ

コイワシクジラ(Balaenoptera acutorostrata)は世界中の冷温帯〜熱帯海域に広く分布する小型のミンク鯨類で、体長8〜10メートルほどに成長する。IUCNレッドリストでは軽度懸念(LC)に分類されており、ヒゲ鯨類の中では比較的個体数が多く、沿岸域〜外洋まで幅広く生息する。好奇心旺盛で船舶に近づく行動が観察されることが多く、北西太平洋のいくつかの個体群では捕鯨の継続的な対象となっている。

ヒガシオオコノハズク

The Collared Scops Owl, known scientifically as <em>Otus lettia</em>, is a small owl belonging to the family Strigidae. As a member of the large and diverse scops owl genus Otus, <em>Otus lettia</em> is characterised by its cryptic, bark-like brown and grey plumage providing camouflage during daytime roosting, along with small ear tufts typical of scops owls. The species inhabits a variety of forested environments, including tropical and subtropical forests, forest edges, and well-wooded areas. It is reported to occur in Norway according to available range data. Scops owls are generally nocturnal hunters, feeding on insects and small vertebrates, and are frequently detected by their repetitive, monotone calls uttered at night. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan, body length, and weight are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Scops Owl is currently assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
