chimpanzee

約98.7%のDNAを共有する人類の最も近い現生親族で、中央および西アフリカの熱帯林とサバンナ林に生息する。道具を使用・製作し、文化的な伝統を示し、独特のパントフートを含む豊かな発声でコミュニケーションをとる非常に知能の高い社会的霊長類だ。森林破壊、野生動物肉の狩猟、人間からの感染症伝播により個体数が減少している絶滅危惧種だ。

Fly Agaric

ベニテングタケ（Amanita muscaria）は地球上で最も象徴的で広く知られる菌類であり、北半球の北方林全域に白いいぼのある鮮やかな赤い傘を広げる。童話のような外見とは裏腹に、ムシモールやイボテン酸などの強力な向精神性化合物を含み、中程度の毒性がある。シラカバ、マツ、トウヒと重要な外生菌根共生関係を形成し、無機栄養素と炭素を交換することで北方林の栄養循環に不可欠な役割を担っている。
