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。

Common Oak

英国栎（Quercus robur）是欧洲最重要、分布最广的落叶乔木之一，寿命可逾千年，高达40米，所支撑的生物多样性超过欧洲任何其他树种，超过2300种昆虫、真菌、地衣、苔藓和鸟类直接依赖成熟栎树为生。分布于欧洲全境至西亚的温带森林，其坚硬耐久的木材在历史上是造船、建筑和制桶的基础材料。
