コーチャアリモズ

The cocha antshrike (Thamnophilus praecox) is a poorly known, range-restricted bird in the family Thamnophilidae—the antbirds—endemic to a narrow strip of floodplain forest along the lower Napo River drainage in northeastern Ecuador and immediately adjacent northern Peru. The species is strongly associated with dense, shrubby vegetation in seasonally or permanently flooded várzea and igapó forests, particularly thickets of Gynerium sugarcane and other tall grasses and shrubs at the forest-water interface in oxbow lakes and riverine backwaters—habitats reflected in its name, 'cocha' being a Quechua word for lagoon or lake. Males display the typical antshrike pattern of bold black and white barring on the wings and mantle, with a black crown and white underparts; females are rufous-brown above with streaked underparts, providing camouflage in dense vegetation. The cocha antshrike feeds by gleaning insects and other arthropods from low vegetation within its flooded forest thickets, foraging in pairs or small groups year-round within apparently stable territories. Its highly specialized and fragmented habitat makes the species particularly vulnerable to deforestation, petroleum extraction activities, and hydrological alteration of Amazonian floodplain systems. Classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN, the cocha antshrike faces ongoing threats from habitat loss within its extremely restricted range, and comprehensive population surveys remain a research priority.

koala

オーストラリア東部・南東部を代表する有袋類で、体重は最大15kgに達し、低カロリーのユーカリの葉食から得るエネルギーを節約するために1日最大22時間を睡眠に費やす。他の哺乳類の多くを死に至らしめる有毒なユーカリ成分を処理するために高度に特化しており、解毒に特別に適応した腸内微生物叢を持つ。クラミジア感染症、生息地の伐採、気候変動により個体数が激減し、2022年に絶滅危惧種に指定された。
