The Siamese fighting fish, also known as the betta, is a freshwater fish in the gourami family, native to Thailand—previously known as Siam—and present in neighboring Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, and Vietnam. While colloquially known and marketed as "betta" in the global aquarium trade, B. Splendens is one of 73 species comprising the genus Betta. It is one of the most popular and widely available aquarium fish in the world, due to its varied and vibrant colour, diverse morphology, and relatively low maintenance.
Euphorbia milii, the crown of thorns, Christ plant, or Christ thorn, called Corona de Cristo in Latin America, is a species of flowering plant in the spurge family Euphorbiaciae, native to Madagascar. The species name commemorates Baron Milius, once Governor of Réunion, who introduced the species to France in 1821. It is imagined that the species was introduced to the Middle East in ancient times, and legend associates it with the crown of thorns worn by Christ.

The northeast African mole-rat is a species of rodent in the family Spalacidae and is found in Ethiopia, Somalia, and northwest Kenya. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, dry savanna, high-altitude shrubland and grassland. It lives a solitary existence underground and produces a small litter of pups twice a year, in the two rainy seasons. Some taxonomic authorities lump this species, along with a number of others in the genus, in which case the English name East African mole-rat is used.
