Cheetah
地球上で最も速い陸上動物で、アフリカとイランの草原において短距離走で時速112kmに達する。深い胸部、長い脚、独特の黒い涙縞模様を持つ細身の体型が特徴だ。他の大型ネコ科動物とは異なり、チーターはチャープ音やパー音で鳴く。生息地の分断と大型捕食者との競争により、残存個体数は約7,000頭のみとなっており、危急種に分類されている。
カヤノボリ
<em>Spizixos semitorques</em>, the Collared Finchbill, is a bulbul in the family Pycnonotidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It is native to eastern Asia, with its range including southeastern China, Taiwan, and adjacent areas. The Collared Finchbill inhabits forest edges, scrub, and bamboo thickets, and is typically found at middle to higher elevations. Members of the genus <em>Spizixos</em> are characterized by their thick, finch-like bills, which are adapted for feeding on hard-coated seeds and berries in addition to insects. The common name reflects both the collar-like markings on the plumage and the distinctive bill morphology. Diet, population estimates, population trend, and biological measurements including average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in available records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The species is associated with aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments within its range. Its Least Concern status indicates stable populations across its eastern Asian range.
