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.

coastal red milkwood

Coastal red milkwood (Mimusops caffra) is an evergreen tree in the family Sapotaceae, native to the coastal dune forests and littoral scrub of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa, as well as parts of Mozambique. It grows in coastal dune forest, scrub forest, and the margins of estuarine vegetation, where it tolerates salt-laden winds and sandy, well-drained soils. The tree produces glossy, dark green leaves; small, star-shaped white flowers; and orange to red edible fruits relished by birds, monkeys, and other wildlife. Its wood is dense and durable, historically used in furniture making and construction. Coastal red milkwood is an important component of threatened South African coastal dune forest, a habitat that has been extensively cleared for residential development, forestry, and agriculture along the eastern seaboard. Despite these pressures, the species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. It is frequently planted in coastal gardens and ecological restoration projects for its salt and wind tolerance. The species name commemorates the former name for the region of the Cape of South Africa.
