白头海雕

白头海雕是美国国鸟,也是美国生态保护史上的成功案例,曾因滴滴涕(DDT)的广泛使用而濒临灭绝,经保护措施的实施后种群数量已显著恢复。该物种在IUCN红色名录中被评估为无危(LC),以白色头颈和尾羽与深棕色体羽形成的鲜明对比为主要识别特征。它们主要以鱼类为食,也会捕食哺乳动物和腐肉。

崇安髭蟾

The Chongan Moustache Toad (Leptobrachium liui) is a robust, terrestrial frog in the family Megophryidae, native to the subtropical mountainous forests of south-central China, particularly the western Fujian, Jiangxi, and Sichuan provinces. Megophryid frogs are a diverse Asian family adapted to cool, humid forest streams, and many species display remarkable breeding biology. The moustache toad is best known for the extraordinary breeding biology of its congener Leptobrachium boringii — males of that species grow sharp, keratinous spines on the upper lip during the breeding season, used in aggressive fights over calling sites — and similar adaptations may occur in L. liui. Adults are cryptically coloured in browns and greys, resembling leaf litter. They breed in fast-flowing mountain streams, where females deposit large eggs in sheltered sites and the resulting robust, bottom-grazing tadpoles are well adapted to current environments. The IUCN classifies Leptobrachium liui as Least Concern with a broad enough range in montane forest habitats of central China to sustain viable populations. Threats include forest degradation, water pollution from agricultural runoff, and collection for the food and traditional medicine trades, which affect many frog species in China and Southeast Asia.
