Buckelwal

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。

Cultivated Mushroom

世界で最も広く栽培されているキノコであるマッシュルーム（Agaricus bisporus）は、ホワイトマッシュルーム、クレミニ、ポルトベロなど成長段階に応じた形態を持ち、世界のキノコ生産量の約40%を占める。ヨーロッパと北アメリカの草原に自生するAgaricus属の野生種から家畜化され、堆肥化された藁と堆肥の上で管理された環境で商業的に栽培される。ビタミンB群、セレン、食物繊維が豊富で、人類の料理において最も栄養的に汎用性の高い菌類の一つである。
