黑腰梅花雀

黑腰文鸟(Estrilda troglodytes)是撒哈拉以南非洲和萨赫勒地区半干旱及干旱灌丛的小型梅花雀,具有与灰褐色体羽形成鲜明对比的朱红色喙和腰部。栖息于干燥草地、稀树草原边缘及耕作地,以小型草籽为食。外形精致,性情活泼且具有群居性,是欧洲和亚洲颇受欢迎的笼养观赏鸟。

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。
