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。

紅額鸚鵡

红额鹦鹉（Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae）是一种具有鲜艳红色头顶和脸颊斑块的小型亮绿色鹦鹉，为新西兰特有种，栖息于从海平面到高山带的森林中。适应性极强，觅食种子、花朵、果实和昆虫。由于引入的捕食者（鼠类、白鼬、猫）威胁，在本土已濒危，但在无哺乳动物的近海岛屿上维持着健康种群。保育迁移和捕食者控制项目支持本土种群恢复。
