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。

紅領綠鸚鵡

亚历山大鹦鹉(Psittacula krameri)是世界上分布最广、最具入侵性的鹦鹉之一,原产于撒哈拉以南非洲和南亚,但从逃逸笼鸟发展出来,已在包括欧洲、北美、日本和澳大利亚在内的35个以上国家建立了大型野化种群。雄鸟具有独特的粉红和黑色颈环。适应力强、繁殖力高,在伦敦、阿姆斯特丹、布鲁塞尔等城市中野化种群急剧增加,形成庞大的栖息群落,并与本土洞巢鸟类展开竞争。
