Cheetah

猎豹是地球上奔跑最快的陆地动物，在非洲和伊朗草原上短距离冲刺速度可达112千米/小时。体型纤细，胸深腿长，具有标志性的黑色泪纹。与其他大型猫科动物不同，猎豹以吱鸣声和咕噜声交流。由于栖息地碎片化和与更大型捕食者的竞争，猎豹被列为易危，野外仅剩约7,000只。

克布氏鷦鷯

Cobb's wren (Troglodytes cobbi) is a small, insectivorous passerine in the family Troglodytidae, endemic to the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) in the South Atlantic Ocean. It inhabits rocky coastal areas, kelp beds, tussac grass tussocks, and rocky shorelines, where it forages actively for invertebrates, amphipods, and small crustaceans among rocks and beach wrack. Cobb's wren is closely related to the house wren complex but represents a distinct island lineage adapted to maritime conditions. Its distribution is restricted to the outer islands of the Falklands, as introduced rats and cats have extirpated it from most inhabited islands and the two main islands where introduced predators are present. On rat-free outer islands, populations are locally common. The IUCN assesses Cobb's wren as Least Concern overall, acknowledging that total population size across the outer islands is considered adequate, though its restricted island endemic range and vulnerability to mammalian predator introduction demand ongoing management. Rat eradication programmes on Falkland Islands have been crucial in protecting this and other seabird-associated species.
