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。
紅腳旋蜜雀
红腿蜜雀(Cyanerpes cyaneus)是一种与唐纳雀有关的小型色彩艳丽的吸蜜鸟,雄鸟展示鲜艳的宝蓝色羽毛和明亮的红腿——这一诊断特征为该种命名——以及细长弯曲、黄色尖端的嘴。分布于从墨西哥向南至玻利维亚、巴西及特立尼达的热带和亚热带森林冠层。用长嘴探入花朵采蜜,其嘴可进入短嘴鸟类无法到达的花朵。是热带冠层树木花朵的重要传粉者,广泛分布于新热带低地湿润森林。
