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。
白腹林星蜂鳥
白腹林星蜂鸟(Chaetocercus mulsant)是栖息于哥伦比亚至玻利维亚安第斯山脉及山间谷地的小型林星蜂鸟,雄鸟体重仅约2.5克,是体型最小的蜂鸟之一。雄鸟展示艳丽的紫红色喉斑、白色腹部和绿色胁部。见于海拔1,500至3,500米的林缘和花园。尽管体型娇小,却颇具攻击性且机动灵活,夜间进入蛰伏状态以在寒冷的安第斯环境中节省能量。
