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.

house mouse

지구상에서 가장 널리 분포하고 개체수가 많은 포유류 중 하나인 집쥐는 남아시아에서 기원하여 남극을 제외한 모든 대륙에 인류 문명과 함께 퍼져나갔다. 체중 15~25g의 고도로 적응력 있는 잡식성 동물로 최소한의 먹이와 물로 생존할 수 있다. 세계에서 가장 흔히 사용되는 실험 동물로서 사실상 모든 생의학 연구 분야에 기여해 왔다. 전 세계적으로 농업에 상당한 피해를 입힌다.
