ラケットカワセミ

<em>Tanysiptera galatea</em> is a strikingly colored kingfisher in the family Alcedinidae, native to the Maluku Islands and New Guinea in the Australasian region. The species is characterized by elongated central tail feathers, a vivid blue and white plumage, and a distinctive red bill. It inhabits lowland tropical forests, forest edges, and secondary growth, where it forages for invertebrates, small lizards, and earthworms typically caught by diving to the ground from low perches. The species nests in arboreal termite mounds, excavating tunnel nests that provide insulation and protection. Its occurrence record in Norway is a clear database artifact; the true range is confined to the islands of eastern Indonesia and New Guinea. The IUCN classifies this species as Least Concern owing to its broad distribution and large populations across suitable forest habitats. Biological traits including average lifespan, body length, and body weight are not consistently recorded across populations in standardized databases, and detailed dietary data remain poorly documented. Conservation concerns center on the continued integrity of lowland forests within its range, particularly in areas facing agricultural conversion and logging pressure.

Tiger

地球上最大の野生ネコ科動物で、体重が300kgを超えることもあり、ロシア極東から東南アジアにかけての森林に生息する。まだら光の中で擬態効果を持つ独特のオレンジと黒の縞模様の毛皮を持つ単独待ち伏せ型捕食者である。密猟と森林破壊により野生個体数が4,000頭未満に減少した深刻な危機（CR）種である。
