Ласточковая талурания

A brilliantly colored South American hummingbird named for its deeply forked tail, fork-tailed woodnymphs display glittering violet-blue gorget and green upper parts in males, with deep blue forked outer tail feathers. They are widespread in tropical forests east of the Andes from Venezuela and Colombia to Bolivia and Brazil. Highly aggressive territory defenders, they chase other hummingbirds from nectar sources. They are important pollinators of diverse Amazonian and Atlantic Forest flowering plants.

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.
