giraffe

The tallest living animal on Earth, giraffes can reach 5.5 meters in height and weigh up to 1,750 kg. Their elongated necks — containing the same seven cervical vertebrae as all mammals — evolved for feeding on acacia trees in African savannas and woodlands. Social animals living in loose herds with no permanent bonds, giraffes communicate through infrasound and body language. Vulnerable, with populations declining due to habitat loss and poaching.

обыкновенный буревестник

A medium-sized seabird of the North Atlantic and North Pacific, Manx shearwaters are renowned for their extraordinary navigation abilities. They travel up to 1 million kilometers over a lifetime, migrating annually between breeding colonies on North Atlantic islands and wintering grounds off South America. Their stiff-winged shearing flight just above wave surfaces is characteristic. One individual lived for over 55 years, one of the longest-lived wild birds recorded.
