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。

Haloterrigena thermotolerans は、高い塩濃度と高温の両方で成長できる超好塩性・耐熱性古細菌です。塩の結晶、塩類湧水、熱的影響を受けた超塩分生息地を含む塩分が多く温暖な陸上環境に生息します。この好気性の化学従属栄養生物は、高塩分と熱という二重のストレスに適応しています。
