A ave nacional dos Estados Unidos e símbolo do sucesso conservacionista americano, a águia-careca tem uma envergadura de até 2,4 metros e habita florestas e zonas húmidas próximas de águas abertas em toda a América do Norte. Quase extinta na década de 1960 devido ao envenenamento por DDT e à caça, recuperou de forma notável após as proibições de pesticidas e a Lei das Espécies em Perigo.

Lecanographa lyncea é um líquen crustoso raro que cresce sobre a casca de árvores antigas e veteranas em florestas antigas. Produz apotécios lirelados alongados e é considerado um dos indicadores mais sensíveis de ecossistemas florestais não perturbados de longa continuidade na Europa. Criticamente Ameaçado, enfrenta grave ameaça por perda de habitat, declínio de árvores veteranas e poluição do ar.
