Habitat & Geographic Range

ハクトウワシ

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 10 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).

Common Timothy

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas within the Indomalayan biogeographic realm.

Range

Widely distributed across Asia (6 countries), Europe (9 countries), North America (Canada, Mexico, United States), Oceania and the Pacific (Australia), and South America (Argentina, Brazil, Chile).

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 Timothy

<em>Phleum pratense</em>, commonly known as common timothy or timothy grass, is a perennial grass in the family Poaceae widely cultivated and naturalized throughout temperate regions of the world. Native to most of Europe and western Asia, it has been introduced to North America, South America, New Zealand, and Australia, where it is now naturalized across vast areas. Timothy grass typically grows in meadows, pastures, roadsides, and disturbed habitats, thriving in well-drained to moderately moist soils at a broad range of elevations. It forms dense tufts with erect culms reaching up to 150 centimeters in height, topped with distinctive cylindrical, spike-like panicles that ripen to a straw-yellow color in summer. The species is one of the most important forage grasses globally, extensively cultivated for hay and silage production for livestock, particularly horses and cattle. It is also a significant source of allergenic pollen and is a major cause of hay fever in many parts of the world. <em>Phleum pratense</em> is currently assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. Its conservation status is stable given its widespread distribution, high adaptability, and continued cultivation. Biological traits such as average lifespan under natural conditions, individual weight, and detailed growth parameters remain variable and context-dependent across populations.
