Habitat & Geographic Range
Белоголовый орлан
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 10 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).
Colonia Robber Frog
Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.
Белоголовый орлан
The national bird of the United States and a symbol of American conservation success, bald eagles have a wingspan of up to 2.4 meters and inhabit forests and wetlands near open water across North America. Powerful aerial predators and scavengers, they specialize in fish but also take waterfowl and carrion. Nearly extinct by the 1960s due to DDT poisoning and hunting, the bald eagle recovered dramatically following pesticide bans and the Endangered Species Act.
Colonia Robber Frog
<em>Eleutherodactylus audanti</em>, the Colonia robber frog, is a direct-developing frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae assessed as Vulnerable by the IUCN. Members of the genus <em>Eleutherodactylus</em> 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. <em>Eleutherodactylus audanti</em> 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.
