Habitat & Geographic Range
チモールショウビン
Typically found in various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments.
Found in Norway. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
gray wolf
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, deserts and xeric shrublands, and tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, among 13 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Widely distributed across Africa (Seychelles), Asia (Japan), Europe (5 countries), North America (7 countries), Oceania and the Pacific (Marshall Islands, Vanuatu), and South America (5 countries). Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
チモールショウビン
The cinnamon-banded kingfisher (Todiramphus australasia) is a medium-sized kingfisher in the family Alcedinidae, endemic to the Lesser Sunda Islands of Indonesia, particularly Timor, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, and adjacent smaller islands. It inhabits primary and mature secondary forest, forest edges, and lightly wooded areas, perching conspicuously on branches from which it hunts lizards, large insects, and occasionally small vertebrates. The plumage features a distinctive cinnamon-rufous breast band across an otherwise blue-green and white body, giving the species its common name. The cinnamon-banded kingfisher is classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN, reflecting ongoing habitat loss from deforestation across the Lesser Sunda Islands, where forest cover has declined substantially due to agricultural conversion, charcoal production, and logging. Its restricted island range limits the total available habitat and makes local extinctions from habitat loss particularly significant at the population level. The Lesser Sunda Islands represent a transition zone between Asian and Australasian biotas and host considerable endemic biodiversity. The species is entirely absent from Europe; any Norwegian database record is an artifact. Conservation priorities include protection of remaining primary forest on Timor and other key islands in its range.
gray wolf
最も広い分布域を持つ野生のイヌ科動物であるハイイロオオカミは、北アメリカからユーラシアにかけてのツンドラ、森林、草原などの多様な生息地に分布します。優位な繁殖ペアに率いられた家族単位の群れで生活する高度に社会的な動物です。キーストーン捕食者として獲物個体群を調整し、生態系の構造を根本的に形成することは、イエローストーンでの再導入により実証されています。かつて激しく迫害されましたが、多くの地域で個体群は回復しつつあります。
