American Bald Eagle

흰머리독수리(Haliaeetus leucocephalus)는 미국의 국조이자 미국 자연 보전 성공의 상징으로, 날개 폭이 최대 2.4미터에 달하며 북미 전역의 수변 삼림과 습지에 서식한다. 주로 물고기를 포식하는 강력한 공중 포식자이자 청소 동물로, DDT 오염과 남획으로 1960년대에 멸종 위기에 처했으나 농약 사용 금지와 멸종위기종보호법 시행 이후 극적으로 개체수가 회복되었다.

Cinnamom Rose

Cinnamom rose (Rosa majalis), also called cinnamon rose or May rose, is a wild rose shrub in the family Rosaceae, native to a broad band of temperate Europe and Asia, from Scandinavia and western Russia east across the boreal zone to Siberia and Central Asia. It grows in open woodland, scrub, forest margins, river banks, and montane meadows, tolerating a wide range of soils and preferring well-drained, moderately fertile conditions. The plant typically reaches 1–2 meters in height and produces fragrant pink flowers in late spring to early summer, followed by bright red hip fruits rich in vitamin C. The name cinnamon rose refers to the brown, cinnamon-like bark of the older stems. Rosa majalis is not formally assessed by the IUCN and is generally considered common and widespread across its Eurasian range. The rose hips have been used in folk medicine, jams, teas, and vitamin C supplements across its range for centuries. It hybridizes readily with other wild roses, and taxonomic boundaries within the genus Rosa are complex. This species is a legitimate component of Scandinavian and northern European flora, including Norway, making it one of the few species in this dataset whose Norwegian records are accurate. It provides important food for birds and small mammals in winter months.
