지구에서 살았던 것으로 알려진 가장 큰 동물로, 대왕고래(Balaenoptera musculus)는 33미터, 200톤에 달할 수 있으며, 심장만도 소형 자동차 무게와 비슷합니다. 모든 대양에 서식하며, 극지방 먹이 지역과 열대 번식 지역 사이를 이동합니다. 하루 최대 4톤의 크릴새우를 섭취하는 여과 섭식자입니다. 20세기 포경으로 인한 거의 멸종 이후 전 세계 개체수가 10,000~25,000마리로 추정되는 멸종위기 종입니다.

Collared Crow

<em>Corvus torquatus</em> is a corvid in the family Corvidae that has not been formally evaluated under current IUCN Red List criteria. Historically, <em>Corvus torquatus</em> was treated as a valid species encompassing what is now often recognized as <em>Corvus pectoralis</em>, and the two names have been used synonymously in some taxonomic treatments. The relationship between these taxa reflects ongoing revisions within corvid systematics. <em>Corvus torquatus</em> is associated with aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments within its recorded range. Corvids generally exhibit complex social behavior, tool use, and omnivorous dietary habits. Specific diet, population estimates, population trend, and biological measurements for <em>Corvus torquatus</em> as a distinct entity are not documented in the available records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its conservation status has not been formally assessed, and the taxonomic status of this name relative to <em>Corvus pectoralis</em> warrants clarification in future systematic reviews.
