Lion

アフリカ最大の野生ネコ科動物で最大250kgに達し、サハラ以南のサバンナや草原に生息する唯一の社会性ネコ科動物です。雄は象徴的なたてがみで識別されます。頂点捕食者として草食動物の個体群を調節し、生態系のバランスを維持します。生息地の喪失と人間との軋轢により危急種に分類されています。

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。
