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。

紫旋蜜雀

紫蜜鸟（Cyanerpes caeruleus）是与裂舌雀亚科近缘的小型绚丽蜜鸟，雄鸟羽毛呈深紫色，翅膀黑色，腿部有鲜黄色斑块，雌鸟则为深绿色带黄色条纹。分布于哥伦比亚、委内瑞拉至玻利维亚、巴西的湿润热带雨林林冠，用长而弯曲的喙吸食花蜜，也取食浆果和小型昆虫。是热带林冠花卉的重要传粉者。
