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。

哥伦比亚小冠雉

<em>Ortalis columbiana</em>, commonly known as the Colombian Chachalaca, is a bird species belonging to the genus <em>Ortalis</em> within the family Cracidae, a group of large, chicken-like birds native to the Americas. This species is assessed as Least Concern by major conservation bodies, indicating stable populations that are not presently at elevated extinction risk. It has been documented in Colombia, its primary native range, and records also note an occurrence in Norway, likely reflecting captive or introduced individuals rather than a natural wild population. The Colombian Chachalaca inhabits various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic-adjacent environments, typically favoring forest edges, dense scrubland, and gallery forests along watercourses. Chachalacas are primarily frugivorous, supplementing their diet with leaves, flowers, and small invertebrates. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. The species is known for its loud, raucous calls, particularly at dawn and dusk, which are a characteristic feature of its habitat soundscapes. Habitat protection in Colombia is important for maintaining healthy populations.
