Colonia Robber Frog

Eleutherodactylus audanti, the Colonia robber frog, is a direct-developing frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae assessed as Vulnerable by the IUCN. Members of the genus Eleutherodactylus are notable for their direct development, bypassing the free-living tadpole stage entirely and hatching as miniature froglets from terrestrial eggs, a reproductive strategy that reduces dependence on standing water for breeding. This species inhabits freshwater-associated environments, moist tropical forests, and wetland margins, occupying humid microhabitats within the leaf litter and understorey vegetation. The Vulnerable assessment reflects population declines associated with habitat loss, chytrid fungal disease, and potentially climate-driven changes in forest moisture regimes. Robber frogs in this genus feed opportunistically on small invertebrates encountered in their forest floor microhabitat. Eleutherodactylus audanti has not been confirmed from any specific country according to current records, suggesting either a highly restricted or poorly documented distribution. Conservation of moist forest habitats is considered essential to the long-term survival of this species. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

gorilla

세계에서 가장 큰 영장류인 서부고릴라는 체중이 최대 180kg에 달하며 적도 아프리카의 열대 및 아열대 삼림에 서식한다. 주로 초식성이며, 무리를 보호하고 사회적 갈등을 중재하는 실버백 수컷이 이끄는 가족 집단을 이루어 생활한다. 삼림 벌채, 식육용 밀렵, 에볼라 바이러스 발병의 위협으로 인해 심각한 위기(CR) 종으로 지정되었다.
