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。

Entoloma albotomentosumsはピンク色の胞子を持つEntoloma属の白い綿毛状の笠を持つキノコです。ヨーロッパ温帯地域の草地や未改良牧草地で育ちます。このキノコは栄養の乏しい石灰質草原生息地と関連しており、腐生性または弱い菌根関係を通じて栄養を獲得します。
