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。

紅梅花雀

红梅花雀(Amandava amandava)是南亚和东南亚森林的色彩艳丽小型雀鸟,繁殖期雄鸟全身覆有白色斑点的深红色羽毛。栖息于巴基斯坦、印度至印度尼西亚水边的高草地、芦苇丛和灌木地带。是亚洲各地广受欢迎的笼养鸟,已在欧洲、日本和加勒比海部分地区形成引入种群。群居生活,发出轻柔悦耳的鸣声。
