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.
Cultivated Mushroom
O cogumelo-de-paris (Agaricus bisporus), nas suas diferentes fases de crescimento — botão branco, cremini e portobello — é o cogumelo mais cultivado no mundo, representando aproximadamente 40% da produção mundial de cogumelos. Domesticado a partir de espécies silvestres de Agaricus encontradas em pastagens da Europa e da América do Norte, é cultivado comercialmente em ambientes controlados sobre palha e estrume compostados. Rico em vitaminas do complexo B, selênio e fibras alimentares, é um dos fungos nutricionalmente mais versáteis na culinária humana.
