Cheetah

지구상 가장 빠른 육상 동물로, 아프리카와 이란의 초원에서 단거리 질주 시 시속 112km에 달하는 속도를 낸다. 깊은 가슴, 긴 다리, 독특한 흑색 눈물 줄무늬를 가진 날씬한 체형이 특징이다. 다른 대형 고양이과와 달리 치타는 지저귀는 소리와 그루링 소리를 낸다. 서식지 파편화와 대형 포식자와의 경쟁으로 인해 약 7,000마리만 남아 있으며 취약종으로 분류된다.

Common Green-Magpie

<em>Cissa chinensis</em>, commonly known as the common green magpie, is a passerine bird belonging to the genus Cissa within the family Corvidae. This species inhabits various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments, with a documented range that includes Norway, suggesting occasional vagrant or introduced occurrences far outside its native Southeast and South Asian distribution. Common green magpie is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species is typically associated with dense tropical and subtropical forests across its native range, where its brilliant green plumage, often fading to turquoise with age and sun exposure, renders it a striking forest bird. It is an omnivore typically foraging at mid and lower forest levels. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
