Cleft Bramble

The Cleft Bramble, Rubus laciniatus, known also as the Cutleaf or Evergreen Blackberry, is a vigorous, thorny shrub in the family Rosaceae native to central and southeastern Europe, from the Balkans through to southwestern Asia. It is widely naturalized in western North America, southern Australia, New Zealand, and other temperate regions where it was introduced as a garden plant or for erosion control. The distinctive deeply divided, laciniate leaves with finely cut leaflets distinguish it from other brambles. Like other Rubus species, it produces edible black fruits relished by birds and mammals, making it an important food plant for wildlife, but its vigorous growth and ability to root from stem tips make it an aggressive colonizer and a serious invasive species in many regions outside its native range. In the Pacific Northwest of the United States, Rubus laciniatus forms dense, impenetrable thickets that displace native vegetation and reduce biodiversity. Control is difficult given its extensive root system and the ability of fragments to regenerate. The species is listed as a noxious weed in several US states and Australian states. In its native European range, Cleft Bramble is not threatened and occurs in woodland edges, hedgerows, and scrubby habitats.

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。
