美洲紅鸛
美洲火烈鸟是色彩最鲜艳的火烈鸟种类,其猩红粉色羽毛来源于甲壳类食物中的类胡萝卜素色素。分布于从巴哈马和佛罗里达到中美洲及加拉帕戈斯群岛的加勒比海沿岸潟湖、盐田和红树林沼泽。高度群居,在泥滩土堆上大规模集群繁殖。其独特的深粉色被用来向潜在配偶传递健康和繁殖质量的信号。
giraffe
长颈鹿(Giraffa camelopardalis)是地球上最高的动物,身高可达5.5米,体重最重可达1,750千克。其细长的颈部——与所有哺乳动物一样包含七块颈椎——是为了在非洲稀树草原和林地取食金合欢树而进化的。长颈鹿是社会性动物,生活在无固定纽带的松散兽群中,通过次声波和肢体语言进行交流。由于栖息地丧失和偷猎,种群持续减少,被列为易危。
