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。

Colombian Soft-furred Spiny-rat

<em>Diplomys caniceps</em>, the Colombian soft-furred spiny rat, is a rodent in the family Echimyidae found in Colombia. The genus <em>Diplomys</em> is characterised by a pelage that, despite the common name, is relatively soft compared to other spiny rats, with spine-like guard hairs interspersed among the fur. This species is assessed as Data Deficient by the IUCN, indicating that available information is insufficient to determine its conservation status reliably. Data Deficient assessments typically arise when a species occupies remote or poorly surveyed habitats, or when taxonomic uncertainties complicate population estimates. <em>Diplomys caniceps</em> is believed to inhabit tropical lowland and montane forests of Colombia, where it likely feeds on plant material including seeds, fruits, and fibrous vegetation. As a medium-sized terrestrial rodent, it probably serves as prey for a range of forest predators. The lack of ecological and distributional data underscores the need for targeted field surveys. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
