koala

澳大利亚东部和东南部的标志性有袋类动物，体重最大可达15千克，为了节省低热量桉树叶食物所提供的能量，每天最多睡眠22小时。高度特化，能够处理会致大多数其他哺乳动物死亡的有毒桉树成分，拥有专门适应解毒功能的肠道微生物群。因衣原体病、栖息地开发和气候变化导致种群锐减，2022年被列为濒危物种。

冠紅蠟嘴雀

红冠主红雀（Paroaria coronata）是一种原产于南美洲玻利维亚、巴西至阿根廷的中型鸟类，具有鲜艳的红色冠羽、白色面部和灰色体羽，已被引入夏威夷和其他太平洋岛屿，成为檀香山标志性的花园鸟。栖息于茂密灌丛边缘、草地和郊区花园，觅食种子和小型昆虫。尽管名称和外观与北美红雀相似，但它们并非近亲，而是属于裂嘴雀科。
