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。

Vibrio choleraeはコンマ形で高い運動性を持つグラム陰性の水生細菌で、ヒトにおける汎世界的コレラの病原体です。沿岸河口域、河川デルタ、暖かい海洋環境に生息し、プランクトン特にカイアシ類と関連することが多いです。汚染された水や食品を通じて拡散し、重篤な水様性下痢を引き起こして公衆衛生に大きな影響を与えます。
