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。

眼鏡鸚哥

世界最小的鹦鹉之一，眼镜鹦哥体长仅12厘米，栖息于哥伦比亚、巴拿马和委内瑞拉的湿润森林和林缘。以雄鸟显著的蓝色眼圈命名，这些袖珍绿色鹦鹉成群结队觅食种子、浆果和果实，嘈杂地穿越林冠。与许多小型新热带鹦鹉一样，面临栖息地砍伐的压力。因其紧凑的体型和好奇的性格而在鸟类饲养中广受欢迎。
