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 red milkwood

Coastal red milkwood (Mimusops caffra) is an evergreen tree in the family Sapotaceae, native to the coastal dune forests and littoral scrub of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa, as well as parts of Mozambique. It grows in coastal dune forest, scrub forest, and the margins of estuarine vegetation, where it tolerates salt-laden winds and sandy, well-drained soils. The tree produces glossy, dark green leaves; small, star-shaped white flowers; and orange to red edible fruits relished by birds, monkeys, and other wildlife. Its wood is dense and durable, historically used in furniture making and construction. Coastal red milkwood is an important component of threatened South African coastal dune forest, a habitat that has been extensively cleared for residential development, forestry, and agriculture along the eastern seaboard. Despite these pressures, the species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. It is frequently planted in coastal gardens and ecological restoration projects for its salt and wind tolerance. The species name commemorates the former name for the region of the Cape of South Africa.
