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。

Common Club Moss

<em>Lycopodium clavatum</em>, commonly known as common club moss or running clubmoss, is a primitive vascular plant in the family Lycopodiaceae. This ancient lineage predates seed plants and is distributed across a remarkably wide geographic range, including Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America. It typically grows in heathlands, moorlands, boreal forests, and alpine meadows, often forming extensive creeping mats along the ground. The species reproduces via spores produced in distinctive club-shaped strobili, from which it derives its common name. <em>Lycopodium clavatum</em> favors acidic, well-drained soils in open or semi-shaded habitats. Its spores have historically been used in pyrotechnics and as a coating for pills. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
