Common Hippopotamus, Hippopotamus, Large Hippo

아프리카에서 가장 위험한 대형 포유류인 하마(Hippopotamus amphibius)는 최대 3,200kg에 달하며 사하라 이남 아프리카의 강, 호수, 습지에 서식한다. 반수생 생활을 하며 하루 16시간까지 물에 잠겨 체온을 조절하고 밤에는 육지에서 풀을 뜯는다. 온순해 보이지만 매우 공격적이고 영역 방어가 강해 매년 수백 명의 인명 피해를 일으킨다. 취약 종으로 서식지 손실과 상아를 노린 밀렵으로 위협받고 있다.

Great Reed Warbler

큰갈대솔새(Acrocephalus arundinaceus)는 IUCN 적색목록에서 심각한위기종(CR)으로 분류됩니다. 심각한 개체군 감소와 서식지 손실로 인해 야생에서의 멸종 위험이 극히 높습니다.
