地球上で生きたことが知られている最大の動物であるシロナガスクジラ（Balaenoptera musculus）は、体長33メートル、体重200トンに達することができ、心臓だけで小型自動車ほどの重さがあります。全ての海洋に生息し、極地の餌場と熱帯の繁殖地の間を回遊します。1日最大4トンのオキアミを摂取する濾過摂食者です。20世紀の捕鯨による絶滅危機からの回復後、世界的な個体数は10,000〜25,000頭と推定される絶滅危惧種です。

Camarophyllopsis phaeophylla はヨーロッパ各地の古い改良されていない草地に生育する非常に希少な小型の暗色傘をもつキノコです。ワックスキャップ草地の最も信頼できる指標種のひとつとされ、生物多様性価値が高い生息地を示します。農業集約化、化学肥料の投入、伝統的な干し草地管理の喪失により深刻なリスクにさらされており、絶滅危機（CR）に分類されています。
