African elephant

非洲象是地球上体型最大的陆地动物，体重可达7,000千克，栖息于撒哈拉以南非洲的草原、稀树草原和森林中。作为关键种，它们通过挖掘水源、传播种子和改变植被结构，深刻塑造了其栖息地的生态系统。受栖息地丧失和象牙盗猎威胁，非洲象的保护至关重要。

費氏情侶鸚鵡

费氏牡丹鹦鹉（Agapornis fischeri）是一种原产于坦桑尼亚和肯尼亚维多利亚湖周边稀树草原林地和林缘的小型艳丽鹦鹉，体羽绿色，头部和喉部呈鲜亮橙色，喙呈红色。它们建立牢固的配对关系，不断为对方梳理羽毛——这一行为正是牡丹鹦鹉名称的由来。由于大量被捕供全球宠物贸易，被列为近危。圈养条件下已培育出多种色彩变异品系。
