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。

ニッケイオウギセッカ

The cinnamon bracken warbler (Bradypterus cinnamomeus) is a skulking, secretive bird in the family Locustellidae, endemic to the highlands of East Africa. It inhabits dense bracken fern, rank grass, scrub, and the undergrowth of montane forest margins at elevations from approximately 1,500 to 3,200 meters, from Ethiopia and Uganda south through Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The plumage is rich cinnamon-brown above and paler below with streaked flanks, providing excellent camouflage in its dense vegetative habitat. The species produces a distinctive loud, churring, or musical song that is heard more often than the bird is seen. The cinnamon bracken warbler is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with stable populations across its East African highland range. It is absent from Europe entirely; Norwegian database records are geographic data errors. Montane grassland and forest edge habitats in the East African highlands support remarkable bird diversity, including many endemic species. While the cinnamon bracken warbler's habitat faces some pressure from agricultural expansion at forest margins, its adaptability to bracken fern and secondary vegetation provides resilience. It is a popular target species for birdwatchers visiting montane sites in Kenya and Uganda.
