Like the distantly-related river dolphins of Asia, the freshwater boto Inia geoffrensis of tropical South America's great river systems has tiny eyes; unlike the Asian dolphins, however, botos' eyes are quite functional and their vision good. Even so, in the dark and tannin-tinged waters of the rainforest river basins visibility is often quite poor. In addition to echolocation, aided by a bulbous, malleable melon, the long rostrum of the boto is covered with fine hairs for feeling around in the low-visibility waters. This photo shows the wispy hairs along the rostrum with wonderful clarity.
En 2022, Luigi Cani lanzó más de 100 millones de semillas de 27 especies de árboles a más de 4.000 metros de altura en la selva amazónica deforestada. Tuvo que saltar desde casi 2.000 metros para alcanzar la caja de 300 kg a 300 km/h para asegurar una distribución precisa.
