虎鯨

作为海豚科体型最大的成员,虎鲸(Orcinus orca)体长可达9米,体重6吨,分布于从北极到南极的所有海洋。以母系群体生活的顶级捕食者,不同种群具有独特的方言、狩猎策略和文化传统。一些种群专门捕食鱼类,另一些则捕食海洋哺乳动物。没有天敌,虎鲸位于其所栖居的每条海洋食物链的顶端。

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。
