ココアオニキバシリ

The cocoa woodcreeper (Xiphorhynchus susurrans) is a medium-sized, streaked woodcreeper in the family Furnariidae, native to the tropical forests, cacao plantations, and wooded areas of Central America and the northern Caribbean coast of South America, including Colombia, Venezuela, Trinidad, and the Central American isthmus from Honduras to Panama. Like other woodcreepers, it is a bark-gleaning insectivore, hitching upward along tree trunks and large branches with the support of stiff, spine-tipped tail feathers, systematically probing bark crevices, mosses, and epiphytes for insects, spiders, centipedes, and small lizards. The species' streaked brown plumage provides excellent camouflage against bark. It often joins mixed-species foraging flocks, particularly those following army ant swarms that flush invertebrates from leaf litter and bark. The cocoa woodcreeper inhabits both intact forest and shaded agricultural habitats — including the cocoa plantations from which it takes its name — showing some tolerance for modified land use where mature trees are retained. It has no natural presence in Norway; such country records are data artifacts. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with wide distribution and generally stable populations across its Caribbean and Central American range, though local declines may occur where forest cover is lost to intensive agriculture or urban development. Taxonomy of the Xiphorhynchus woodcreepers has been extensively revised with molecular phylogenetic data in recent decades.

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。
