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-rumped Frog

Coastal red-rumped frog (Eleutherodactylus paralius) is a small direct-developing frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae, endemic to lowland coastal forests and their margins in Cuba and possibly other Caribbean islands. Like all members of the speciose genus Eleutherodactylus, it bypasses an aquatic larval stage, with embryos developing directly within the egg into miniature froglets. The species inhabits humid leaf litter, root tangles, and low vegetation in coastal forest and scrub, emerging nocturnally to forage for small invertebrates including insects and arachnids. The common name refers to reddish or orange coloration on the posterior flanks or groin, which may serve as an aposematic signal or camouflage disruptive pattern. Eleutherodactylus is the most species-rich vertebrate genus on Earth, with hundreds of species distributed across the Caribbean and the Americas. Coastal red-rumped frog is assessed as Near Threatened by the IUCN, reflecting pressure from habitat loss driven by coastal development, logging, and the spread of chytrid fungus, which has devastated amphibian populations globally. Monitoring and habitat protection are critical for its persistence.
