Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Afrotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Botswana, Iran, Kenya, Namibia, and Tanzania. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Обыкновенный бронзовокрылый голубь-фапс

Cheetah

The fastest land animal on Earth, reaching speeds of 112 km/h over short distances across African and Iranian grasslands. Slender build with a deep chest, long legs, and distinctive black tear-stripe markings. Unlike other big cats, cheetahs vocalize with chirps and purrs. Vulnerable, with only ~7,000 remaining due to habitat fragmentation and competition with larger predators.

The common bronzewing (<em>Phaps chalcoptera</em>) is a medium-sized ground-dwelling pigeon with records from Norway, though it is primarily an Australian species with a range spanning various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic habitats. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, reflecting stable population numbers across its range. As a member of the family Columbidae, the common bronzewing is typically recognized by the iridescent bronze and green patches on its wings, which shimmer in sunlight. The species often inhabits a wide variety of environments, including eucalyptus woodlands, shrublands, grasslands, and areas near water sources. The common bronzewing typically feeds on seeds, grasses, and other plant material foraged from the ground. It is often seen drinking at waterholes and watercourses, and is known for its distinctive hooting call. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
