蓝锥嘴雀

蓝达克尼斯是热带南美洲色彩绚丽的唐纳雀类鸟种，雄鸟身披鲜艳的蓝绿色羽毛，背部和喉部为黑色，雌鸟则为绿色。分布于从哥伦比亚、委内瑞拉向南至玻利维亚和巴西的潮湿森林冠层及林缘地带。它们在树冠叶丛中觅食果实、浆果和小型昆虫，常加入混种觅食群。它们是亚马逊森林和大西洋森林生态系统中小果乔木的重要种子传播者。

koala

澳大利亚东部和东南部的标志性有袋类动物，体重最大可达15千克，为了节省低热量桉树叶食物所提供的能量，每天最多睡眠22小时。高度特化，能够处理会致大多数其他哺乳动物死亡的有毒桉树成分，拥有专门适应解毒功能的肠道微生物群。因衣原体病、栖息地开发和气候变化导致种群锐减，2022年被列为濒危物种。
