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。

モルッカヒタキ

The cinnamon-chested flycatcher (Ficedula buruensis) is a small Old World flycatcher in the family Muscicapidae, endemic to Buru Island (Pulau Buru) in the Maluku province of eastern Indonesia. It inhabits the montane and hill forest of Buru, one of the larger islands of the Maluku archipelago, at elevations from approximately 600 to 2,100 meters. The species is characterized by the male's dark blackish-blue upperparts and vivid cinnamon-rufous underparts. Like other Ficedula flycatchers, it is an active, aerial insectivore, hawking insects from low to mid-height perches in forest understorey and edge. The cinnamon-chested flycatcher is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations considered stable within Buru's montane forest. Buru Island is considered a center of avian endemism, harboring multiple restricted-range species found nowhere else. The island's forests face pressure from logging and shifting cultivation, though montane areas remain relatively intact. The species is absent from Europe entirely; Norwegian database records are geographic data errors. Conservation of montane forest on Buru Island is important for this and other Buru endemics. The genus Ficedula includes numerous island endemic flycatchers across Southeast Asia and the Pacific, many with small restricted ranges.
