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。

草菇(Volvariella volvacea)俗称「稻草菇」，是热带亚洲栽培数千年的中型食用菌，具有独特的包被、灰褐色菌盖和粉红色菌褶。生长于东南亚和东亚热带亚热带地区的稻草、堆肥和腐烂植物残体上。这种腐生真菌分解农业残余物，尤其是稻草，并作为食用菌被广泛栽培。
