Emperor Penguin
Found across multiple habitat types including temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, temperate coniferous forests, and boreal forests and taiga, among 4 distinct biome types within the Palearctic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Found in Norway. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Coimbra-Filho’s Titi
The Coimbra-Filho's Titi (Callicebus coimbrai), also known as Coimbra-Filho's Titi Monkey, is a small New World monkey in the family Pitheciidae, named in honour of the Brazilian primatologist Adelmar F. Coimbra-Filho. This titi monkey is endemic to the Atlantic Forest of northeastern Brazil, with its range restricted to the states of Sergipe and southern Alagoas—one of the most critically fragmented and threatened biomes on Earth. Adults are small, with reddish-brown fur on the flanks and upperparts, pale grey on the underparts, and an orange-red forehead band. Like all titi monkeys, Callicebus coimbrai is highly social, living in monogamous family groups of 2–5 individuals that engage in elaborate dawn duets and tail-twining behaviour as expressions of pair bonding. The species inhabits Atlantic Forest fragments, including lowland and highland forest patches, riverine gallery forest, and secondary growth, where it subsists on fruits, seeds, leaves, and occasional invertebrates. The Coimbra-Filho's Titi is classified as Endangered by the IUCN due to its severely fragmented range within one of the world's most deforested biomes, with less than 12% of original Atlantic Forest remaining, ongoing habitat loss from agricultural expansion, and small, isolated population sizes highly vulnerable to stochastic extinction events.
Emperor Penguin
세계에서 가장 큰 펭귄인 황제펭귄(Aptenodytes forsteri)은 키가 최대 1.2m에 몸무게가 45kg에 달하며, 지구상에서 가장 혹독한 환경인 남극 대륙에 서식합니다. 영하 60°C 이하의 한겨울 암흑 속에서 번식하며, 수컷이 암컷이 바다에 있는 동안 65일 동안 발 위에서 육아낭 아래에 알 한 개를 품습니다. 수천 마리가 모인 무리에서 개체들이 따뜻한 중심부를 순환하는 이른바 허들링 행동은 협동적 생존의 훌륭한 사례입니다.
