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.

Клиноклювый колибри

A tiny, inconspicuous hummingbird of humid forests and forest edges in the Andes and northern South America, wedge-billed hummingbirds have a distinctive short, wedge-shaped bill adapted to short-tubed flowers of the Heliconia genus. They inhabit elevations from lowland to 2,400 meters, often foraging in the understory of dense cloud forest. Males have subtle green and bronze-green iridescent plumage. They frequently hover in the shade of the forest floor, making them difficult to observe.
