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。

玫瑰色盐球菌(Salinicoccus roseus)是一种存在于盐水生境中的粉红至玫瑰色素嗜盐革兰氏阳性球菌。栖居于全球干旱和沿海地区的盐湖、太阳盐田和高盐土壤。这种好氧化能有机营养菌产生类胡萝卜素色素，可能保护其免受露天盐水环境强烈日光的伤害。
