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。

紅腳旋蜜雀

红腿蜜雀（Cyanerpes cyaneus）是一种与唐纳雀有关的小型色彩艳丽的吸蜜鸟，雄鸟展示鲜艳的宝蓝色羽毛和明亮的红腿——这一诊断特征为该种命名——以及细长弯曲、黄色尖端的嘴。分布于从墨西哥向南至玻利维亚、巴西及特立尼达的热带和亚热带森林冠层。用长嘴探入花朵采蜜，其嘴可进入短嘴鸟类无法到达的花朵。是热带冠层树木花朵的重要传粉者，广泛分布于新热带低地湿润森林。
