厄瓜多尔蚁鵙

The cocha antshrike (Thamnophilus praecox) is a poorly known, range-restricted bird in the family Thamnophilidae—the antbirds—endemic to a narrow strip of floodplain forest along the lower Napo River drainage in northeastern Ecuador and immediately adjacent northern Peru. The species is strongly associated with dense, shrubby vegetation in seasonally or permanently flooded várzea and igapó forests, particularly thickets of Gynerium sugarcane and other tall grasses and shrubs at the forest-water interface in oxbow lakes and riverine backwaters—habitats reflected in its name, 'cocha' being a Quechua word for lagoon or lake. Males display the typical antshrike pattern of bold black and white barring on the wings and mantle, with a black crown and white underparts; females are rufous-brown above with streaked underparts, providing camouflage in dense vegetation. The cocha antshrike feeds by gleaning insects and other arthropods from low vegetation within its flooded forest thickets, foraging in pairs or small groups year-round within apparently stable territories. Its highly specialized and fragmented habitat makes the species particularly vulnerable to deforestation, petroleum extraction activities, and hydrological alteration of Amazonian floodplain systems. Classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN, the cocha antshrike faces ongoing threats from habitat loss within its extremely restricted range, and comprehensive population surveys remain a research priority.

gorilla

西部大猩猩是世界上最大的灵长类动物，体重可达180千克，栖息于赤道非洲的热带和亚热带森林。主要为草食性，以保护族群并调解社会冲突的银背雄性为首形成家族群体。由于森林砍伐、丛林肉偷猎和埃博拉病毒疾病暴发，被列为极度濒危（CR）。
