黃尾冕蜂鳥

一种因温暖的浅黄色尾基和冠状虹彩头部而得名的大型健壮蜂鸟,栖息于哥伦比亚和厄瓜多尔北部安第斯山脉的云雾林和林缘,海拔1200至2800米。相对具攻击性,会守卫富含花蜜的领地并在大型开花树上觅食。相对于低地物种而言,其较大体型反映了对高海拔低温采食环境的适应。被列为无危。

帝企鹅

帝企鹅是世界上体型最大的企鹅,身高可达1.2米,体重达45千克,栖息于南极大陆极端恶劣的环境中。它们在隆冬的黑暗中、零下60°C以下的严寒里繁殖,雄鸟将唯一的蛋置于脚背上,藏于育卵囊下孵化长达65天,而雌鸟则在此期间出海觅食。数千只帝企鹅组成的群体通过循环交换位置、使个体轮流经过温暖的核心区域这一抱团取暖行为,堪称合作生存的典范。
