cohoba

Cohoba (Anadenanthera peregrina), also known as Yopo or Parica, is a large leguminous tree in the family Fabaceae native to the tropical savannas (llanos), gallery forests, and dry to moist forests of South America, with its range extending from Venezuela and Colombia south through the Guyanas, Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. Trees grow 5–20 metres tall, bearing bipinnate leaves and spherical, fluffy white flower heads characteristic of the mimosoid legumes. The flat, curved seed pods split open to reveal seeds rich in tryptamine alkaloids, particularly bufotenin (5-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine), N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), and related compounds. Seeds are traditionally prepared by indigenous peoples of the Orinoco and Amazon basins as a psychedelic snuff called cohoba or yopo, inhaled through hollow bird-bone tubes during shamanic and ritual ceremonies. This use, documented since pre-Columbian times and depicted in archaeological artefacts, gave rise to the common name cohoba used in Taíno language. The tree is not threatened and has a broad natural distribution; it is not formally evaluated by the IUCN. Beyond its ethnobotanical significance, Anadenanthera peregrina is valued for its tannin-rich bark used in leather tanning, and the wood serves locally for construction and fuel.

jaguar

アメリカ大陸最大のネコ科動物で、体重は最大100kgに達し、がっしりとした筋肉質の体型と特有のロゼット模様の毛皮を持つ。メキシコから南アメリカにかけて分布し、アマゾンやパンタナルが主要生息地となる。優れた水泳能力を持つ頂点捕食者であり、獲物個体数の調節に重要な役割を担う。森林破壊により生息域が縮小し、準絶滅危惧に分類されている。
