ハクトウワシ

アメリカの国鳥であり保全の成功を象徴するハクトウワシは翼開長が最大2.4 mに達し、北米全域の水辺近くの森林や湿地に生息する。強力な空中捕食者兼腐肉食者で魚を主食とするが、水鳥や腐肉も捕食する。DDT汚染と狩猟によって1960年代にほぼ絶滅に瀕したが、農薬の使用禁止と絶滅危惧種法の施行により劇的に回復した。

Churuguara Collared Frog

The Churuguara collared frog (Mannophryne caquetio) is a small terrestrial frog in the family Aromobatidae, endemic to northwestern Venezuela. It inhabits humid montane and premontane forests in the Falcón and Lara states, occupying rocky streamsides, leaf litter, and moss-covered boulders at elevations from approximately 500 to 1,500 meters. Like other members of the genus Mannophryne, this species exhibits a distinctive collar-like throat pattern used in territorial and mate-attraction displays. Males guard egg clutches deposited on moist surfaces and may transport hatched tadpoles to water. The species is classified as Endangered by the IUCN, reflecting its restricted geographic range, habitat specificity, and ongoing threats from deforestation, agricultural expansion, and illegal wildlife collection. Venezuela's montane forests harbor exceptional amphibian diversity but remain poorly protected outside a few national parks. The Churuguara collared frog is part of a broader radiation of Mannophryne species across the northern Andes and Venezuelan coastal ranges, many of which are similarly threatened. Its cryptic coloration and secretive behavior make population monitoring challenging. Chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) poses an additional emerging threat to this and related Neotropical amphibians. Targeted surveys and habitat protection in the Falcón highlands are critical for the species' long-term survival.
