Habitat & Geographic Range

Cheetah

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Afrotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Botswana, Iran, Kenya, Namibia, and Tanzania. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Common,Banded Bullfrog

Habitat

Inhabits tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests and tropical and subtropical coniferous forests within the Indomalayan biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Brunei, Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan.

지구상 가장 빠른 육상 동물로, 아프리카와 이란의 초원에서 단거리 질주 시 시속 112km에 달하는 속도를 낸다. 깊은 가슴, 긴 다리, 독특한 흑색 눈물 줄무늬를 가진 날씬한 체형이 특징이다. 다른 대형 고양이과와 달리 치타는 지저귀는 소리와 그루링 소리를 낸다. 서식지 파편화와 대형 포식자와의 경쟁으로 인해 약 7,000마리만 남아 있으며 취약종으로 분류된다.

Common,Banded Bullfrog

The common banded bullfrog (<em>Kaloula pulchra</em>) is a compact amphibian native to the Indomalayan biogeographic region, where it typically inhabits moist broadleaf forests, coniferous forests, and montane environments. Its geographic range spans several Southeast and East Asian countries, including Brunei, the Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan. The species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, reflecting a relatively stable population across its native range. It is often associated with humid forest floors and edge habitats, where moisture levels support its amphibian physiology. The banded bullfrog is recognizable by its stout body and the distinctive pale lateral stripe that runs along each side. It is known to shelter in soil crevices and leaf litter during dry periods, emerging to feed and breed after rainfall. Breeding typically occurs in temporary pools and flooded areas following monsoon rains, with males producing loud calls to attract mates. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
