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。

ダルマインコ

アカムネインコ（Psittacula alexandri）は、バラ色の赤い胸と頬のパッチが緑と灰色の羽毛と対比する中型のインコで、ネパールやインドからベトナム、インドネシアにかけての南・東南アジア全域に分布する。森林、マングローブ、農耕地に生息し、実を結ぶ木や穀物畑に大きな群れを形成することが多い。Psittaculaインコの中で最も分断された分布域の一つを持ち、アジアとヨーロッパで広く飼育されている。
