coigue
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Found in Ireland.
jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
coigue
Coigue (Nothofagus dombeyi) is a large, evergreen or semi-deciduous tree in the southern beech family Nothofagaceae, one of the most ecologically dominant tree species of the Valdivian temperate rainforest of Chile and Argentina. Trees can exceed 40 metres in height with massive trunks and broad, rounded crowns clothed in small, dark green, toothed leaves. Unlike many southern beeches, N. dombeyi retains much of its foliage through winter, making it an important year-round canopy component in the cool, wet forests of the Chilean lake district and Andean foothill zones, from approximately 35°S to 47°S latitude. The species commonly grows in association with other Nothofagus species, Laurelia, Podocarpus, bamboo (Chusquea), and various tree ferns in the highly diverse Valdivian floristic province. Coigue timber is used for construction, furniture, and fuel in Chilean forestry, and the species is planted in reforestation programmes. Ecologically, it is a keystone canopy component supporting a rich diversity of epiphytes, birds, and invertebrates. Nothofagus dombeyi is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN given its abundance across large areas of native Chilean and Argentine forests, though these forests face ongoing threats from agricultural expansion, logging, and invasive alien species.
jaguar
アメリカ大陸最大のネコ科動物で、体重は最大100kgに達し、がっしりとした筋肉質の体型と特有のロゼット模様の毛皮を持つ。メキシコから南アメリカにかけて分布し、アマゾンやパンタナルが主要生息地となる。優れた水泳能力を持つ頂点捕食者であり、獲物個体数の調節に重要な役割を担う。森林破壊により生息域が縮小し、準絶滅危惧に分類されている。
