Yun Bao

体重可达26千克的中型野生猫科动物云豹,栖息于从喜马拉雅东部经东南亚延伸至婆罗洲的热带和亚热带森林。以其独特的云状皮毛斑纹命名,它拥有野生猫科动物中相对头骨尺寸最长的犬齿,是能够头朝下爬下树木的出色攀爬者。因森林砍伐而被列为易危(VU),但总种群数量仍不清楚。

Fly Agaric

毒蝇鹅膏菌(Amanita muscaria)是地球上最具标志性和辨识度的真菌,在北半球寒带森林中展示出点缀白色鳞片的鲜红色菌盖。尽管外观如童话般,它含有包括蝇蕈醇和鹅膏氨酸在内的强效致幻化合物,具有中度毒性。它与桦树、松树和云杉形成关键的菌根共生关系,交换矿物质营养和碳,在寒带森林养分循环中发挥不可或缺的作用。
