It calls attention to discoveries that are made even as species are going extinct faster than they are identified.

They include a bird-like dinosaur, dubbed the “chicken from Hell,” that was 3.5 meters from beak to tail and weighed as much as 300 kilograms; a spider that lives in the Moroccan desert and can use its gymnastic talents to cartwheel out of danger; a 23-centimeter-long walking stick common in Vietnam; and a colorful sea slug from the Japanese islands that is the missing link between slugs that feed on colonies of tiny stinging jellies and those specializing on corals.

There are science fiction shows that depict different alien humanoid races from different worlds, and they could interbreed, because maybe these shows assume that there was a common ancient humanoid colonization that resulted in different evolutions on different worlds. Possibly then, in such a scenario, different humanoids could speak one another's language.

The adjutant bird (Leptoptilus dubius) is one of Nature’s little jokes. It is a caricature of a bird, a mixture of gravity and clownishness. Everything about it is calculated to excite mirth—its weird figure, its great beak, its long, thin legs, its conspicuous pouch, its bald head, and every attitude it strikes.
