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。

紅額鸚鵡

红额鹦鹉(Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae)是一种具有鲜艳红色头顶和脸颊斑块的小型亮绿色鹦鹉,为新西兰特有种,栖息于从海平面到高山带的森林中。适应性极强,觅食种子、花朵、果实和昆虫。由于引入的捕食者(鼠类、白鼬、猫)威胁,在本土已濒危,但在无哺乳动物的近海岛屿上维持着健康种群。保育迁移和捕食者控制项目支持本土种群恢复。
