Cliff Mallee Ash

The Cliff Mallee Ash, Eucalyptus cunninghamii, is a small, multi-stemmed mallee eucalyptus in the family Myrtaceae with a very restricted distribution on cliff faces and rocky gorges in the Blue Mountains and Hawkesbury regions of New South Wales, Australia. Growing in the characteristic mallee growth form, it sprouts multiple slender stems from a large, woody underground lignotuber that enables rapid resprouting after fire. The species occupies sandstone cliff ledges, rock overhangs, and steep gorge walls in heath and scrub communities, often in association with other endemic sandstone species. The white to cream flowers attract native bees and nectar-feeding birds. Eucalyptus cunninghamii is restricted to a narrow geographic range within the Sydney Basin bioregion and is listed as Endangered under Australian national law. Its cliff-face habitat, while partially protected within national parks, faces threats from altered fire regimes, encroachment by invasive plants, and activities that damage the delicate clifftop and gorge vegetation. The inaccessibility of many cliff populations provides some natural protection from direct human disturbance, but limits the feasibility of active management interventions.

아메리카 대륙에서 가장 큰 고양잇과 동물로, 체중이 최대 100kg에 달하며 단단하고 근육질의 체형과 특유의 로제트 무늬 털가죽을 지닌다. 멕시코에서 남아메리카까지 분포하며, 아마존과 판타날이 주요 서식지다. 뛰어난 수영 실력을 갖춘 최상위 포식자로, 먹이 개체수 조절에 핵심적 역할을 한다. 산림 벌채로 인해 서식 범위가 줄어들어 준위협종으로 분류된다.
