藍鯨

蓝鲸是地球上已知存在过的最大动物，体长可达33米，体重达200吨，其心脏单独就重达一辆小型轿车的重量。分布于各大洋，在极地觅食地和热带繁殖地之间进行迁徙。它们是滤食性动物，每日可消耗多达4吨磷虾。蓝鲸被列为濒危物种，20世纪捕鲸活动使其濒临灭绝，目前全球种群估计约为1万至2.5万头。

朱胸岩鵐

The cinnamon-breasted bunting (Emberiza tahapisi), also called the rock bunting or cinnamon-breasted rock bunting, is a small passerine in the family Emberizidae, widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa and extending into the Arabian Peninsula and parts of western Asia. It inhabits rocky hillsides, boulder-strewn slopes, dry scrub, and open woodland with rocky outcrops, from sea level to highland elevations across its vast African range. The male is distinguished by bold streaky brown upperparts, a black and white striped head, and a rich cinnamon breast—its namesake feature. The species forages on the ground for seeds and invertebrates. The cinnamon-breasted bunting is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with a large, continuous African range and populations considered stable. It is one of the most widespread buntings in Africa. The species is entirely absent from Europe and Norway; database records to the contrary are errors arising from data entry or coordinate mistakes in species databases. This bunting is a common and conspicuous species throughout its African rocky habitat, often singing from prominent boulders. It is non-migratory across most of its range, though some montane populations may make limited altitudinal movements seasonally.
