choupo-do-canadá

<em>Populus deltoides</em>, commonly known as common cottonwood or eastern cottonwood, is a large, fast-growing deciduous tree in the family Salicaceae. It is native to North America but has been widely planted and naturalized in Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America. Common cottonwood typically grows along rivers, streams, floodplains, and other moist bottomland habitats, where it can reach heights of 30 meters or more. The species is named for the cottony white fibers attached to its seeds, which are released in massive quantities in early summer and can create a snow-like appearance in the landscape. Its triangular, toothed leaves flutter characteristically in the slightest breeze due to their flattened petioles. Cottonwood is an important riparian tree providing habitat for birds, insects, and mammals. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

giraffe

A girafa (Giraffa camelopardalis) é o animal terrestre mais alto da Terra, podendo atingir 5,5 metros de altura e pesar até 1.750 kg. Seu pescoço alongado, contendo as mesmas sete vértebras cervicais de todos os mamíferos, evoluiu para se alimentar de acácias nas savanas e bosques africanos. Animal social que vive em manadas soltas sem vínculos permanentes, comunica-se por infrassons e linguagem corporal. Vulnerável, com populações em declínio devido à perda de habitat e à caça ilegal.
