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。

コブハクチョウ

世界で最もよく見られる白鳥であり最大の飛行鳥の一つで、コブハクチョウ（Cygnus olor）は最大 15 kg に達し、ヨーロッパとアジア全域の湖、川、沿岸湾に生息し、北アメリカとオーストラリアにも広く移入個体群があります。名前に反して、コブハクチョウはシューという音、うなり声、翅の風切り音など様々な音を出します。雄は縄張りを激しく防衛し、強力な翅の一撃で人間を傷つけたり犬を溺死させたりする能力があります。
