Cladonia symphycarpaは、Cladonia の特徴である小さく平らな葉状体と赤い子器を持つ固着性〜鱗状地衣類です。温帯ヨーロッパの草原や開放生息地の石灰質土壌や岩石地帯に生育します。この地衣類は極めて稀少とされており、草地の放棄と集約化による生息地の消失に対して脆弱です。

giraffe

地球上で最も背の高い動物であるキリン（Giraffa camelopardalis）は体高が5.5mに達し、体重は最大1,750kgにもなる。すべての哺乳類と同じ7個の頸椎からなる長い首は、アフリカのサバンナや疎林のアカシアの木に食物を求めて進化した。永続的な絆を持たない緩やかな群れで生活する社会的動物で、超低周波音と身振りで意思疎通する。生息地の喪失と密猟により個体数が減少している危急種である。
