Bornean orangutan

세계에서 가장 큰 수상 포유류인 보르네오오랑우탄(Pongo pygmaeus)은 최대 90kg의 무게로 보르네오 우림 캐노피에서 대부분의 삶을 보냅니다. 단독 생활하며 반유목민적으로, 나무에 야간 수면 둥지를 만들고 과일, 잎, 무척추동물을 찾아다닙니다. 팜오일 확장으로 인한 삼림 벌채와 불법 사냥으로 인해 지난 60년 동안 개체수가 50% 이상 감소한 심각한위기(CR) 종입니다.

jaguar

아메리카 대륙에서 가장 큰 고양잇과 동물로, 체중이 최대 100kg에 달하며 단단하고 근육질의 체형과 특유의 로제트 무늬 털가죽을 지닌다. 멕시코에서 남아메리카까지 분포하며, 아마존과 판타날이 주요 서식지다. 뛰어난 수영 실력을 갖춘 최상위 포식자로, 먹이 개체수 조절에 핵심적 역할을 한다. 산림 벌채로 인해 서식 범위가 줄어들어 준위협종으로 분류된다.
