Habitat & Geographic Range
Cheetah
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Afrotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Botswana, Iran, Kenya, Namibia, and Tanzania. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
Colchic Kemulariella
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Cheetah
A chita (Acinonyx jubatus) é o animal terrestre mais veloz do mundo, capaz de atingir 120 km/h em corridas curtas. Possui corpo esbelto, pernas longas e manchas negras sólidas sobre pelagem dourada. Distribui-se nas savanas africanas e, em pequena população, no Irã. Diferentemente de outros grandes felinos, não ruge. Caça durante o dia, utilizando visão aguçada e velocidade para perseguir presas. Classificada como espécie vulnerável, com menos de 7.000 indivíduos na natureza.
Colchic Kemulariella
<em>Kemulariella colchica</em>, known as Colchic Kemulariella, is a plant species assigned a Vulnerable status on the IUCN Red List. The genus <em>Kemulariella</em> belongs to the family Asteraceae, and the species epithet "colchica" again suggests origins in or around the Colchis region of the western Caucasus. The species is associated with diverse terrestrial habitats, spanning tropical to temperate environments, though no specific countries are documented in the available records. Without country-level occurrence data, the precise geographic range of <em>Kemulariella colchica</em> cannot be described accurately. Population estimates, population trend, diet, and biological measurements including average length, weight, and lifespan are absent from the available data. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its Vulnerable assessment signals concern about its long-term survival, likely related to habitat loss or restricted distribution. Further field research is needed to delineate the range, population dynamics, and ecological requirements of this species.
