1. The gerenuk

非洲瞪羚

The gerenuk is, unsurprisingly upon inspection, the longest-necked antelope on earth. Found in the Horn of Africa, they use their lithe appendages to reach high-growing foliage.

不难发现,非洲瞪羚是地球上脖子最长的羚羊。它们生活在非洲之角,用轻盈的四肢撷取高处的树叶。

Gerenuks can also stand on their hind legs and use their gangly forelegs to feed - sometimes reaching up as high as eight feet.

非洲瞪羚还能用后腿站立起来,然后用细长的前腿辅助进食——有时候能达到8英尺高。

Their somewhat comical stature is only enhanced by their large ears, which help them keep cool in the searing African heat.

一对大耳朵使得它们的形象更为滑稽,可以帮助它们在炙热的非洲保持凉爽。
