ギンミミガビチョウ

The Collared Laughingthrush, known scientifically as <em>Trochalopteron yersini</em>, is a passerine bird belonging to the family Leiothrichidae, a group commonly known as laughingthrushes. <em>Trochalopteron yersini</em> is characterised by its rich, colourful plumage, typically featuring rufous, grey, and black tones with a distinctive collar pattern. The species inhabits montane forests and forest edges, generally at higher elevations where dense understorey vegetation provides both foraging opportunities and cover. It is reported to occur in Norway according to available range data. Laughingthrushes are typically vocal and often move in small social flocks through the forest interior. Detailed biological traits including typical lifespan, body length, and weight are poorly documented for this species in available literature. The Collared Laughingthrush is currently assessed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, reflecting serious concerns about population decline, likely driven by habitat loss and degradation within its restricted range.

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。
