Bely Medved

The largest land carnivore on Earth, polar bears can exceed 700 kg and are found across Arctic sea ice from Canada to Russia. Highly specialized marine mammals that rely on sea ice to hunt ringed and bearded seals. Excellent swimmers capable of covering vast distances in open water. Listed as Vulnerable, with populations under severe pressure from rapid Arctic sea ice loss due to climate change.

Шиферный крючкоклюв

A medium-sized flowerpiercer of humid Andean cloud forest and forest edges from Colombia south to Bolivia, white-sided flowerpiercers have distinctive white flank patches contrasting with dark grey-blue plumage. Like all flowerpiercers, they use their sharply hooked and slightly upturned bill to pierce the base of tubular flowers and steal nectar without pollinating — earning them the reputation as nectar thieves. Found at elevations of 1,500–3,500 meters, they are commonly encountered in Andean gardens and forest edges.
