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.

Зелёная хаплофедия

A small, greenish hummingbird of humid Andean forests in Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama, greenish pufflegs are named for the distinctive white fluffy leg puffs — feather tufts on the tarsi — shared by all members of the puffleg genus Haplophaedia. They inhabit forest edges and secondary growth at elevations of 800–2,100 meters, foraging for nectar at small flowering plants in the understory. Listed as Least Concern with relatively stable populations across their range.
