Coastal Brown

Cassionympha perissinottoi, the coastal brown, is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae, subfamily Satyrinae, endemic to the coastal regions of South Africa. Satyrines, commonly called browns or ringlets, are typically medium-sized butterflies with cryptic brown and orange wing patterns that blend effectively with grass and dead vegetation in their grassland and woodland edge habitats. Cassionympha perissinottoi inhabits coastal grassland, dune thicket margins, and moist grassy areas along the eastern South African coast where suitable grass species, which serve as larval host plants, are available. The genus Cassionympha is endemic to Africa and comprises a small number of related species adapted to grassland and savanna habitats. Like many satyrid butterflies, the larvae feed on grasses and the adults feed on rotting fruit, dung, or take moisture from wet soil rather than flower nectar. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, though coastal grassland habitats in South Africa have been significantly reduced through urban development, plantation forestry with invasive pines and eucalypts, and coastal resort development along the KwaZulu-Natal shoreline.

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.
