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。

棕胸銅色蜂鳥

棕胸隐蜂鸟(Glaucis hirsutus)是分布于中美洲至亚马孙流域潮湿低地和山麓森林中的大型隐者蜂鸟,肉桂色棕红色的胸腹羽毛与青铜绿色的背部和长而弯曲的喙形成鲜明对比。雄鸟聚集在求偶场(leks)以鸣声展示吸引雌鸟,沿茂密的森林下层植被穿越固定觅食路线。是热带雨林大型赫蕉花的重要传粉者。
