Baleia jubarte
Entre as baleias grandes mais acrobáticas, as baleias-jubarte são famosas por seus cantos complexos e evocativos entoados pelos machos durante a temporada reprodutiva, podendo durar horas e evoluir ao longo do tempo. Atingindo 16 metros e 30 toneladas, realizam as migrações mais longas de qualquer mamífero. Encontradas em todos os oceanos, alimentam-se de krill e peixes pequenos usando a técnica cooperativa de rede de bolhas.
zaragateiro-rabilongo
<em>Turdoides caudata</em>, commonly known as the Common Babbler, is a passerine bird in the family Leiothrichidae. This species has not been formally evaluated by the IUCN and is known from various environments, with records extending to Norway. Native to the Indian subcontinent and parts of the Middle East, Common Babblers typically inhabit open scrubland, dry grasslands, agricultural areas, and thorny bushes in arid and semi-arid regions. They are highly social birds, living in groups of up to a dozen or more individuals that forage together on the ground, searching for insects, small invertebrates, seeds, and berries. Group members cooperate in defending territories, raising young, and warning against predators through a variety of vocalizations. The Common Babbler is noted for its chattering calls and its tendency to remain in low, dense vegetation. Its average lifespan and reproductive biology are typical of small passerines in its family. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
