年初速动比率为0.85:本周野生生物图集（2011年11月11日)

一头麻醉后的黑犀牛由一架军用直升机，从东开普省丘陵地带的偷猎区，运往15英里外南非林波波省的新家。此次行动由世界野生动物基金会组织实施。他们远隔千山万水，行程1,000英里，将这些犀牛运往林波波省北部的新居。动用的运输工具也首次由卡车改为直升机。在动用直升机起运之前，他们对这些犀牛实施了麻醉，让它们能在安静平稳中顺利地到达目的地。这些犀牛的生存在整个非洲受到了严重地威胁，偷猎分子在公园和私人保护区对它们进行大肆捕杀，取其牛角。Photograph: Green Renaissance/EPA

4Flowers bloom on the desert in the Llanos de Challe national park, at the doors of the Atacama desert, USA. An exceptional year with a 50 mm rainfall helped the more than 200 species of autochthonous flowers, which don't grow elsewhere, 14 of them in risk of extinction, to spread out a colorful blanket over the world's driest desert Photograph: Antoine Lassagne/AFP/Getty Images 
美国阿塔卡马沙漠入口处Llanos de Challe国家公园的沙漠上。这里姹紫嫣红，鲜花盛开。特殊的年份给这里带来50毫米的降雨量,帮助本地特有的200余种花绽放笑脸。这其中有14种面临着灭绝的危险。它们就象一张多彩的地毯，覆盖在世界上最干旱的沙漠之上。Photograph: Antoine Lassagne/AFP/Getty Images

9Paroedura masobe: Because of their IUCN red list status, species which have often been overlooked in conservation efforts, such as endangered geckos, Paroedura masobe and Uroplatus pietschmanni will be featured more prominently in future plans Photograph: Franco Andreone/IUCN 
这是一只马达加斯加本土壁虎（Paroedura masobe）：由于其进入“世界自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名录”（The IUCN Red List of. Threatened Species，也称IUCN红色名录），所以常常被保护人员所忽视。此类濒危壁虎物种如Paroedura masobe 与 Uroplatus pietschmanni在未来的保护计划中将更显其突出地位。Photograph: Franco Andreone/IUCN

12Toruk, a 3-year-old male harpy eagle, held an impressive pose for guests to San Diego zoo. Harpy eagles have excellent vision that allows them to see something less than 1 inch in size from almost 220 yards away. But the feathers on the top of the head, which can be fanned out into a bold crest distinguishes this raptor from other eagles. Toruk's keepers say he seems to raise these when he is curious, but biologists also theorise it may help the eagle break its silhouette in the rain forests of Central and South America where they are found Photograph: Ken Bohn/AFP/Getty Images 
这是一只3岁大的哈比雄鹰，名叫托鲁克。它的独特身影给前来圣地亚哥动物园游玩的客人们留下了深刻的印象。哈比鹰的视力极其敏锐，无与伦比。几乎是220码开外不到1英寸大小的东西都逃不过它的法眼。头顶上的羽毛成扇形张开，大胆而夸张，让人们一眼就能将其与其他猛禽区别开来。托鲁克的收养者也称他正是出于好奇才收养它的，而生物学家还推论，它的这一特点可以帮助它在活动的中美洲和南美洲的热带雨林变换自己的身形。Photograph: Ken Bohn/AFP/Getty Images
