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。

coastal beggarticks

Bidens hyperborea, the coastal beggarticks, is a rare annual herb in the family Asteraceae native to coastal wetland habitats of eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, where it occurs in salt marsh margins, tidal river banks, and brackish wetland edges. The species belongs to a complex of annual Bidens species adapted to disturbed, muddy, or seasonally flooded habitats, and can be difficult to distinguish from related taxa. Like other beggarticks, it produces small yellow flower heads followed by barbed achenes equipped with two to four awns, which catch onto fur, feathers, or clothing for animal-mediated seed dispersal, a strategy reflected in the common name. Bidens hyperborea is uncommon to rare throughout its range and is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, though it is considered a species of conservation concern in several states and provinces where it occurs. Coastal wetland habitats in eastern North America have experienced substantial reduction through filling, agricultural drainage, and development over the past century, and ongoing sea-level rise combined with saltwater intrusion threatens to alter the brackish wetland habitats where this species persists. The genus Bidens is distributed globally across temperate and tropical wetland habitats.
