Cultivated Mushroom

世界で最も広く栽培されているキノコであるマッシュルーム(Agaricus bisporus)は、ホワイトマッシュルーム、クレミニ、ポルトベロなど成長段階に応じた形態を持ち、世界のキノコ生産量の約40%を占める。ヨーロッパと北アメリカの草原に自生するAgaricus属の野生種から家畜化され、堆肥化された藁と堆肥の上で管理された環境で商業的に栽培される。ビタミンB群、セレン、食物繊維が豊富で、人類の料理において最も栄養的に汎用性の高い菌類の一つである。

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。
