Common Cusimanse
<em>Crossarchus obscurus</em>, commonly known as the common cusimanse or long-nosed cusimanse, is a small social mongoose in the family Herpestidae. This species is native to the rainforests and dense tropical forests of West and Central Africa. Common cusimanses are highly social animals that typically live in family groups and forage cooperatively on the forest floor, using their elongated, flexible snouts to root through leaf litter and soil in search of invertebrates, small vertebrates, and fallen fruits. They communicate through a variety of vocalizations and are known to mob and harass potential predators. The species is diurnal and terrestrial, sheltering in burrows or dense vegetation at night. Common cusimanses are assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations considered stable across their range. Biological traits such as lifespan and body measurements remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
Golden Eagle
세계에서 가장 강력하고 널리 분포하는 맹금류 중 하나인 검독수리는 날개 폭이 2.2m에 달하며 북반구 전역의 산악 지형에 서식한다. 뛰어난 공중 사냥꾼으로 활공 비행과 시속 200km 이상의 가파른 강하를 이용해 토끼, 산토끼, 땅다람쥐, 때로는 어린 사슴과 여우를 포획한다. 많은 문화권에서 수천 년에 걸친 매사냥 전통의 중심에 있어 왔다.
