大翅鯨

座头鲸是大型鲸类中最具杂技表演性的物种之一,以繁殖季节雄性演唱的复杂而神秘的歌声著称,歌声有时持续数小时并随时间演变。体长可达16米,体重30吨,进行着哺乳动物中最长距离的洄游。分布于所有大洋,通过协作泡泡网捕食磷虾和小鱼。种群数量已从历史捕鲸后大体恢复。

粉髯林星蜂鳥

冠饰星蜂鸟是一种微小的安第斯高山星蜂鸟,雄鸟具有相对于其2.5克体重而言异常巨大的壮观虹彩粉紫色喉饰。见于从哥伦比亚和委内瑞拉到秘鲁西北部海拔1,500至3,500米的山地林缘和花园。像所有星蜂鸟一样,在花朵附近的开阔地带进行嗡嗡声般的昆虫式悬停飞行。为了度过寒冷的安第斯之夜,它们进入深度夜间蛰伏——一种接近死亡的代谢状态。
