Collared Falconet

<em>Microhierax caerulescens</em>, the Collared Falconet, is one of the world's smallest raptors, belonging to the family Falconidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It is native to South and Southeast Asia, with its range extending from the Indian subcontinent through Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and southern China, where it inhabits forest edges, open woodlands, and clearings. Despite its diminutive size, the Collared Falconet is an active predator, hunting insects, small lizards, and occasionally small birds in flight. The genus <em>Microhierax</em> comprises the falconets, all of which are restricted to Asia. The Collared Falconet is named for the prominent rufous or white collar visible on its plumage. Diet, population estimates, and biological measurements such as average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in the available records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its Least Concern status reflects a stable population across its broad South and Southeast Asian range.

gorilla

세계에서 가장 큰 영장류인 서부고릴라는 체중이 최대 180kg에 달하며 적도 아프리카의 열대 및 아열대 삼림에 서식한다. 주로 초식성이며, 무리를 보호하고 사회적 갈등을 중재하는 실버백 수컷이 이끄는 가족 집단을 이루어 생활한다. 삼림 벌채, 식육용 밀렵, 에볼라 바이러스 발병의 위협으로 인해 심각한 위기(CR) 종으로 지정되었다.
