jaguar

The largest cat in the Americas, reaching up to 100 kg with a stocky, muscular build and distinctive rosette-patterned coat. Found from Mexico through South America, with strongholds in the Amazon and Pantanal. Powerful swimmers and apex predators, jaguars play a critical role in regulating prey populations. Near Threatened, with range contracting due to deforestation.

Tulostoma fimbriatum is a stalked puffball (stiltball) fungus with a small, round spore sac elevated on a slender stalk, growing in dry, sandy or calcareous soils in open habitats including dunes, short grasslands, and steppes across Europe and beyond. It releases spores through an apical mouth (peristome). Classified as Endangered, this distinctive species is threatened by loss of short, open grassland habitats and sand stabilisation.
