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。

ヨウム

最も知能が高いオウム種であり、最も優れた鳥類の声帯模写能力を持つと広く認められているヨウム(アフリカハイイロオウム)は、1,000語以上の語彙を習得し、ゼロ、色、形、相対的な大きさの概念の理解を示すことができます。コートジボワールからケニアにかけての赤道アフリカの熱帯雨林に自生し、大きな群れで生活します。毎年野生個体の最大21%が捕獲されるほど深刻なペット目的の捕獲と森林破壊により絶滅危惧種となっています。CITESの附属書Iにより厳格な取引規制が適用されます。
