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.

arroz

O cereal mais importante na historia da humanidade, o arroz alimenta mais da metade da populacao mundial e e o grao basico da Asia, Africa e America Latina. Domesticado a partir do Oryza rufipogon silvestre ha aproximadamente 9.000 anos no vale do rio Yangze na China, o cultivo do arroz moldou civilizacoes, paisagens e ecossistemas. Seus campos de arroz inundados criam extensas areas umidas para aves migratoras, anfibios e invertebrados aquaticos, ao mesmo tempo em que produzem significativas emissoes de metano.
