Common Smoketree

<em>Cotinus coggygria</em>, commonly known as the Common Smoketree or Eurasian Smoketree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree in the family Anacardiaceae, order Sapindales. It has not been evaluated on the IUCN Red List, but the species is widely cultivated and naturalized across temperate regions, suggesting populations are generally stable. The common name refers to the feathery, smoke-like inflorescences that develop after flowering, produced by elongated, hairy pedicels that persist and give the plant a hazy, ethereal appearance. Native to a broad range from southern Europe through central Asia and China, <em>Cotinus coggygria</em> is typically found in rocky slopes, scrubland, dry open woodlands, and calcareous or well-drained soils in warm temperate climates. It is widely distributed across Europe, including Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, and Germany, and is also cultivated in Canada and the United States. The leaves turn striking shades of yellow, orange, and red in autumn, making this a popular ornamental plant in horticulture. As a woody plant, it obtains nutrients through soil absorption and photosynthesis. The wood and bark contain tannins and have historical uses in dyeing and traditional medicine. Specific data on lifespan and precise dimensions vary considerably with growing conditions.

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.
