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.

Club Horned Wood Borer Wasp

Trypoxylon clavicerum is a solitary hunting wasp in the family Crabronidae, subfamily Trypoxylinae. Like other members of the genus Trypoxylon, it is a spider hunter that provisions tubular nest cells with paralyzed spiders as food for its larvae. Females construct nests in pre-existing cavities such as hollow plant stems, old wood-boring beetle tunnels, or crevices in dead wood and soil banks. The species name clavicerum refers to the club-shaped antenna tips. T. clavicerum is distributed across Europe and parts of the Palearctic, inhabiting woodland edges, hedgerows, meadows, gardens, and scrubby areas where both nesting sites and suitable prey spiders are available. Males often guard nest entrances, chasing away parasitic flies and competing males. The Trypoxylon genus is notable for its polygynous or communal nesting tendencies in some species and for behavioral studies on mate guarding. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN given its wide distribution and general abundance in diverse semi-natural habitats. Like many solitary bees and wasps, T. clavicerum benefits from habitat management that maintains bare soil, dead wood, and floral resources.
