大型クジラの中で最も曲芸的なクジラのひとつであるザトウクジラは、繁殖期にオスが歌う複雑で神秘的な歌で知られており、数時間にわたって続き時間をかけて変化していきます。体長16m、体重30トンに達し、哺乳類の中で最長の回遊を行います。全海洋に分布し、協調的なバブルネット採餌でオキアミや小魚を捕食します。歴史的な捕鯨後の個体数はおおむね回復しています。

ムナフオタテドリ

The Chucao Tapaculo (Scelorchilus rubecula) is a secretive, ground-dwelling bird in the family Rhinocryptidae (tapaculos), endemic to the temperate Valdivian rainforests of southern Chile and adjacent Argentina. This robust, short-tailed bird has rich rufous-chestnut underparts and a barred or mottled brown upperside, blending into the dense leaf litter and fern undergrowth of southern beech (Nothofagus) and mixed Valdivian forest where it lives. The species is named for its far-carrying, repetitive call — a loud series of notes that rings through the forest understory. It feeds on insects, spiders, and other invertebrates found on the forest floor. Despite being cryptic in behavior, the Chucao Tapaculo is locally common and conspicuous by sound within its range, which spans roughly from the Lake District of central Chile south to Tierra del Fuego. The IUCN classifies it as Least Concern, reflecting stable populations within intact Valdivian forest. Deforestation and conversion of old-growth forest to pine and eucalyptus plantations are the primary threats to the species' preferred habitat. The Chucao Tapaculo is a flagship species for temperate South American forest conservation.
