gorilla

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 4 distinct biome types within the Afrotropic biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Cameroon, Congo (Republic), Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

นกแสก

The most widespread owl species on Earth, barn owls are found on every continent except Antarctica and in almost every habitat type from tropical forests to temperate farmland. Characterized by their heart-shaped facial disc that funnels sound to asymmetrically placed ears, enabling them to locate prey in total darkness by sound alone. They swallow prey whole and regurgitate compressed pellets of indigestible bone and fur, making them valuable rodent control agents for agriculture.

gorilla

The world's largest primate, western gorillas weigh up to 180 kg and inhabit the tropical and subtropical forests of equatorial Africa. Primarily herbivorous, living in family groups led by a silverback male who protects the troop and mediates social conflicts. Critically Endangered, with populations threatened by deforestation, poaching for bushmeat, and outbreaks of Ebola virus disease.
