common antlers sponge

<em>Axinella polypoides</em>, commonly known as the Common Antlers Sponge, is a marine sponge in the family Axinellidae. This species has not been formally evaluated by the IUCN and has been recorded in waters off Norway, among other European marine environments. The Common Antlers Sponge is an erect, branching sponge that typically forms irregularly branched, tree- or antler-like colonies in yellow to orange coloration, which are visually distinctive on the rocky substrates of the Mediterranean Sea and the northeastern Atlantic Ocean. It typically grows attached to hard substrates such as rocks and corals in subtidal zones, often in areas with moderate to strong water currents that deliver particulate food. As a filter feeder, it draws water through its porous body to extract organic particles and microorganisms. This sponge can reach substantial sizes and is often found in deeper, clear-water habitats. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

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.
