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 Silver Mallee

Coastal silver mallee (Eucalyptus ecostata) is a multi-stemmed mallee eucalyptus in the family Myrtaceae, endemic to the southwest of Western Australia, where it grows in coastal heath, scrub, and mallee shrublands on sandy or lateritic soils near the Indian Ocean coast. Like other mallees, it regenerates vigorously from a lignotuber after fire, a critical adaptation in fire-prone Mediterranean-climate vegetation. Leaves are silvery-grey on young growth, giving rise to the common name, while older foliage is greener. The species produces creamy white to yellow flowers that attract native bees and honeyeaters. Eucalyptus ecostata is assessed as Near Threatened by the IUCN, reflecting a restricted range in the Southwest Australian Floristic Region—one of the world's biodiversity hotspots—and vulnerability to habitat clearing for agriculture, altered fire regimes, and invasion by introduced weeds such as Phytophthora cinnamomi, a root pathogen that has devastated many Australian plant species. Conservation efforts in the region focus on protecting remnant coastal heath and mallee vegetation within the Southwest's network of national parks and nature reserves.
