Kage​

aka Sun-tailed Monkey​

The sun-tailed monkey probably weighs 4 - 9 kg (8.8 - 20 lb). It is found in a hilly area of moist evergreen forest typified by very frequent rivers and streams that dissect the terrain deeply. It prefers densely shaded, tangled areas and remains common after light logging (perhaps because dense undergrowth increases). (Kingdon 1997) The sun-tailed monkey is semi-terrestrial, and it eats fruit, which is abundant most of the year. It occurs in small groups, usually including one male and several females.

The sun-tailed monkey was first described by Western scientists as late as 1988 in central Gabon.

[font=Arial,Helvetica]Endangered[/font] ​

[font=Arial,Helvetica]Now almost extinct, this shorebird once migrated in huge flocks between its remote breeding grounds on the taiga to its wintering grounds in Argentina. Each year, on its way there and back, it faced a slaughter in fall, winter, and spring by gunners who sometimes filled wagons with the birds.[/font]
[font=Arial,Helvetica]By the beginning of the 1900s, the Eskimo curlew was considered extinct, but a few sightings in the past decades in Canada and the United States indicate the existence of a small breeding population. The breeding grounds are yet to be discovered in the North. The bird now has complete legal protection.[/font]
