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。
coastal red milkwood
Coastal red milkwood (Mimusops caffra) is an evergreen tree in the family Sapotaceae, native to the coastal dune forests and littoral scrub of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa, as well as parts of Mozambique. It grows in coastal dune forest, scrub forest, and the margins of estuarine vegetation, where it tolerates salt-laden winds and sandy, well-drained soils. The tree produces glossy, dark green leaves; small, star-shaped white flowers; and orange to red edible fruits relished by birds, monkeys, and other wildlife. Its wood is dense and durable, historically used in furniture making and construction. Coastal red milkwood is an important component of threatened South African coastal dune forest, a habitat that has been extensively cleared for residential development, forestry, and agriculture along the eastern seaboard. Despite these pressures, the species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. It is frequently planted in coastal gardens and ecological restoration projects for its salt and wind tolerance. The species name commemorates the former name for the region of the Cape of South Africa.
