Common Murre

<em>Uria aalge</em>, the common murre or common guillemot, is a seabird in the family Alcidae found across the North Atlantic and North Pacific Oceans. This colonial cliff-nesting bird typically breeds on rocky coastal ledges and sea stacks, often in dense aggregations that may number in the thousands. <em>Uria aalge</em> is a highly capable diver, using its wings to propel itself underwater in pursuit of fish, sand eels, and invertebrates. It is found in coastal and offshore marine waters during the non-breeding season, ranging across the northern seas. Recorded occurrence countries include Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and the United States. Despite its wide distribution and historically large numbers, the common murre is currently assessed as Critically Endangered in certain regional contexts, with populations threatened by oil spills, bycatch in fishing nets, food web disruptions linked to climate change, and disturbance at breeding colonies. Biological traits such as lifespan, body size, and diet remain poorly documented at the population level for this species across its full range, though it is known to be a piscivore. The species is a key indicator of marine ecosystem health and a focus of ongoing seabird conservation efforts.

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.
