Common Green Frog/Green Paddy Frog/Leaf Frog

<em>Hylarana erythraea</em>, commonly known as the common green frog, green paddy frog, or leaf frog, is an amphibian belonging to the genus Hylarana within the family Ranidae. This species inhabits tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests and coniferous forests within the Indomalayan realm, and is also found in montane and highland environments. Its documented range includes Brunei and the Philippines, reflecting a distribution across island Southeast Asia. Common green frog is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species typically occupies vegetation near standing or slow-moving water, where it is often found perching on leaves and stems above the water surface, a behavior consistent with its common name. 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.
