Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Found in Colombia. Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
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 Poison-arrow Frog
<em>Oophaga histrionica</em>, the common poison arrow frog, is a small, brilliantly coloured dendrobatid frog in the family Dendrobatidae, endemic to the lowland and foothill rainforests of Colombia. Like other members of the genus Oophaga, it is aposematically coloured, displaying vivid patterns of red, yellow, black, and white that warn predators of its potent skin toxins, which are derived from the arthropods in its diet. The species is typically terrestrial and diurnal, inhabiting the leaf litter and low vegetation of humid tropical forests where males call to attract females and defend territories. Parental care is well developed, with females transporting tadpoles on their backs to water-filled bromeliads and subsequently feeding them with unfertilised trophic eggs. <em>Oophaga histrionica</em> is assessed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, reflecting severe population declines driven by extensive deforestation, agricultural expansion, and collection for the international pet trade within its restricted Colombian range. Biological traits such as average adult lifespan, precise body dimensions, and detailed dietary composition across its range remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Conservation measures include habitat protection and captive breeding programmes.
