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。

Climbing Star-apple

Climbing Star Apple, Landolphia species, is a genus of woody, climbing lianas and scrambling shrubs in the family Apocynaceae native to tropical and subtropical Africa. Landolphia species were historically important as sources of wild rubber; the latex from cut stems and roots was a major commercial rubber source in central Africa before Hevea brasiliensis became dominant, and its exploitation under Belgian colonial rule in the Congo Free State caused widespread human rights abuses in the late 19th century. The common name 'star apple' relates to the edible fruits produced by several species, which are large, yellow or greenish, with a sweet pulp surrounding the seeds. The fragrant flowers are white and produced in terminal clusters, pollinated by insects. Landolphia species grow in tropical forest margins, secondary forest, and gallery forest across sub-Saharan Africa, where they play an important role in forest structure by connecting canopy layers. The edible fruits are consumed by wildlife and by local human communities. Several Landolphia species are used in traditional medicine for treating a variety of ailments. Conservation status varies among species; some with restricted ranges in heavily deforested areas face threat from habitat loss.
