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。

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。
