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。

キバシキンクロシメ

Mycerobas affinis, the Collared Grosbeak, is a large finch in the family Fringillidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It is native to the Himalayan region and adjacent mountain ranges of South and East Asia, inhabiting montane forests, particularly coniferous and mixed forests at high elevations. Members of the genus Mycerobas are robust birds with powerful bills adapted for cracking open large seeds and hard-coated fruits. The Collared Grosbeak is named for the yellow or greenish collar visible in male plumage. The species is typically encountered in flocks, often foraging in the forest canopy and shrub layer. Diet includes seeds, berries, and invertebrates, though specific diet data for Mycerobas affinis are not enumerated in the available records. Biological measurements such as average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in available data. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its Least Concern status reflects stable populations across its broad Himalayan and montane Asian range.
