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。

オカダンゴムシ

<em>Armadillidium vulgare</em>, the common pill woodlouse, is a terrestrial isopod crustacean in the family Armadillidiidae, widely recognised for its ability to roll into a tight sphere when disturbed, a defensive behaviour that gives it the common name "pill bug" or "roly-poly." Unlike most crustaceans, it is fully adapted to life on land, breathing through modified gill-like structures that must remain moist. The species inhabits a broad range of environments, typically occurring under rocks, leaf litter, decaying wood, and in gardens and agricultural land, where it feeds on decomposing organic matter, playing an important role in nutrient cycling. <em>Armadillidium vulgare</em> is distributed across Europe, parts of Asia including Japan, South Africa, and North America including the United States, reflecting its success as a cosmopolitan species often transported inadvertently by human activity. It is assessed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List. Biological traits such as average lifespan, precise body dimensions, and detailed dietary composition across its range remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Females brood their young in a marsupium, and the species is capable of parthenogenesis under certain conditions, contributing to reproductive flexibility.
