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。
粉髯林星蜂鳥
冠饰星蜂鸟是一种微小的安第斯高山星蜂鸟,雄鸟具有相对于其2.5克体重而言异常巨大的壮观虹彩粉紫色喉饰。见于从哥伦比亚和委内瑞拉到秘鲁西北部海拔1,500至3,500米的山地林缘和花园。像所有星蜂鸟一样,在花朵附近的开阔地带进行嗡嗡声般的昆虫式悬停飞行。为了度过寒冷的安第斯之夜,它们进入深度夜间蛰伏——一种接近死亡的代谢状态。
