Обыкновенная розелла

One of Australia's most colorful parrots, eastern rosellas display a vivid multicolored plumage of red, white, yellow, and blue-green across their body, inhabiting open woodlands and forests of southeastern Australia and Tasmania, and introduced to New Zealand. They forage on seeds, berries, and nectar at or near ground level, and are a familiar garden visitor in suburban southeastern Australia. Popular aviary birds globally for their striking plumage and relatively quiet, musical calls.

волк

The most widely distributed wild canid, gray wolves range from North America across Eurasia in diverse habitats including tundra, forests, and grasslands. Highly social animals living in family packs led by a dominant breeding pair. As keystone predators, wolves regulate prey populations and profoundly shape ecosystem structure, as demonstrated by their reintroduction in Yellowstone. Once heavily persecuted, populations are recovering in many regions.
