백상아리

지구상에서 가장 큰 포식성 어류인 백상아리는 전 세계 주요 대양의 시원한 연안 및 원해에 서식하며, 체장 6미터, 체중 2,000킬로그램까지 성장할 수 있습니다. 해양 포유류, 대형 어류, 바닷새를 주요 먹이로 하여 아래에서 기습 공격하는 최상위 포식자입니다. 무서운 명성에도 불구하고 인간에 대한 비도발적 공격은 극히 드뭅니다. 지느러미 채취, 혼획, 목적성 포획으로 개체수가 감소하고 있어 IUCN에서 취약(VU)으로 분류되며, 많은 지역에서 법적 보호를 받고 있습니다.

Chocolate Mining Bee

The Chocolate Mining Bee (Andrena carantonica) is a medium-sized solitary bee in the family Andrenidae, native to Europe and extending across temperate Eurasia. Mining bees of the genus Andrena are ground-nesting bees that excavate burrows in soft or sandy soils, creating underground cells provisioned with pollen and nectar as larval food. Andrena carantonica is one of several spring-emerging Andrena species associated with fruit trees and spring-flowering plants; females frequently visit the flowers of apple, cherry, hawthorn, willow, and other early-season species, making them important pollinators of both wild plants and orchard crops. The species is often an early-season visitor alongside other spring bees, making it an important pollination service provider before managed honeybee colonies are at full strength. Males typically emerge before females, patrolling host plant patches in search of mates. The species is eusocial in the broad sense, with females sometimes nesting in loose aggregations in favoured soil sites. The IUCN classifies Andrena carantonica as Least Concern; it is one of the more widespread and frequently recorded Andrena species across its range. Threats to mining bee populations generally include loss of nesting habitat (bare ground), loss of floral resources through agricultural intensification, and pesticide use.
