crab eating macaque

게잡이원숭이(Macaca fascicularis)는 IUCN 적색 목록에서 위기(EN) 종으로 분류된다. 야생에서 멸종 위험이 높으며 상당한 개체수 감소와 지속적인 생존 위협에 처해 있다.

Emperor Penguin

세계에서 가장 큰 펭귄인 황제펭귄(Aptenodytes forsteri)은 키가 최대 1.2m에 몸무게가 45kg에 달하며, 지구상에서 가장 혹독한 환경인 남극 대륙에 서식합니다. 영하 60°C 이하의 한겨울 암흑 속에서 번식하며, 수컷이 암컷이 바다에 있는 동안 65일 동안 발 위에서 육아낭 아래에 알 한 개를 품습니다. 수천 마리가 모인 무리에서 개체들이 따뜻한 중심부를 순환하는 이른바 허들링 행동은 협동적 생존의 훌륭한 사례입니다.
