brown-throated three-toed sloth

세계에서 가장 느린 포유류 중 하나인 갈색목세발가락나무늘보는 중앙아메리카와 남아메리카의 열대우림 수관에서 거꾸로 매달려 생활하며, 평균 시속 0.24km로 이동합니다. 낮은 기초대사율은 영양이 부족한 잎 식이에 적응한 핵심 특성입니다. 털 속에서 자라는 조류는 위장 효과를 제공하며, 항균 특성을 가진 공생 균류를 품고 있을 수 있습니다. 나방, 딱정벌레, 균류는 나무늘보 털 안에서 소규모 생태계를 형성합니다.

Tiger

지구상 가장 큰 야생 고양잇과 동물로, 무게가 300kg을 초과할 수 있으며 러시아 극동에서 동남아시아에 걸친 산림에 서식한다. 얼룩진 빛 속에서 위장 효과를 주는 독특한 주황색과 검정 줄무늬 털을 가진 단독 매복 포식자다. 밀렵과 삼림 파괴로 야생 개체수가 4,000마리 미만으로 감소한 심각한 위기(CR) 종이다.
