Habitat & Geographic Range

American Bald Eagle

Habitat

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.

Range

Widely distributed across Europe (8 countries), North America (United States), and South America (Ecuador).

common boobialla

Habitat

Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.

Range

Distributed across Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa, and Spain.

American Bald Eagle

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.

common boobialla

The common boobialla (<em>Myoporum insulare</em>) is a shrub or small tree species with a broad geographic distribution, occurring in Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa, and Spain. This species typically inhabits diverse terrestrial environments, thriving in coastal scrublands, dunes, and open woodlands. As a member of the family Scrophulariaceae, the common boobialla is often prized for its hardiness and tolerance of salt spray and dry conditions. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, indicating stable populations across its range. The species produces small white flowers and dark berries that are attractive to birds and other wildlife, contributing to local biodiversity. Its ability to colonize sandy soils and exposed coastal environments makes it a common component of littoral vegetation communities. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
