林鸱

灰潜鸟（Nyctibius griseus）是栖居于从墨西哥到阿根廷的中美洲和南美洲热带森林的夜行性鸟类，白天静止不动地栖息在折断的树桩或树枝上，眼睛微张，保护色完美到几乎与树皮融为一体，捕食者难以发现。入夜后，它们从暴露的栖枝上张开巨大的嘴捕食大型昆虫。其哀婉、令人毛骨悚然的鸣叫声在热带雨林的夜晚回荡不绝。

giraffe

长颈鹿（Giraffa camelopardalis）是地球上最高的动物，身高可达5.5米，体重最重可达1,750千克。其细长的颈部——与所有哺乳动物一样包含七块颈椎——是为了在非洲稀树草原和林地取食金合欢树而进化的。长颈鹿是社会性动物，生活在无固定纽带的松散兽群中，通过次声波和肢体语言进行交流。由于栖息地丧失和偷猎，种群持续减少，被列为易危。
