Habitat & Geographic Range
coastal primrose
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
Distributed across Canada, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.
jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
coastal primrose
Coastal primrose (Primula stricta) is a small perennial herb in the family Primulaceae, distributed across Arctic and subarctic coastal habitats in Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Svalbard, and northern Russia. It grows on rocky shores, coastal meadows, salt marshes, and gravelly riverbanks at high latitudes, often in areas subject to periodic saltwater inundation or spray. Plants produce a basal rosette of oblong, slightly mealy leaves and erect scapes bearing small, pale pink to lilac flowers with a yellow eye, typical of the genus. Primula stricta is one of the northernmost-occurring primroses, adapted to the short growing seasons and cold temperatures of the high Arctic. It relies on insect pollination when conditions allow, though like many Arctic plants, it may set seed through self-fertilisation. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations spread across a vast circumpolar range. It faces long-term pressure from climate change, which is altering the phenology and hydrology of Arctic coastal habitats. It is considered an indicator species for intact high-latitude coastal ecosystems.
jaguar
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.
