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。

Cokerite Palm

The Cokerite Palm (Attalea maripa), also known as Maripa Palm or Inajá, is a solitary, tall-growing feather palm in the family Arecaceae, distributed across the lowland rainforests, forest edges, and floodplain forests of Amazonian South America, primarily in Brazil and Colombia, with additional records from Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador. Trees typically reach 15–25 metres in height, producing large pinnate fronds and impressive clusters of ovoid fruits with an oily, yellow-orange outer mesocarp surrounding a hard-shelled nut. The palm is widely used by indigenous and traditional communities throughout Amazonia: the oil-rich mesocarp of the fruits is eaten fresh and used to produce a nutritious food paste; the apical bud (palm heart) is consumed; the young leaves are used for basket weaving and thatching; and the trunk wood serves in construction. Attalea maripa frequently regenerates vigorously in disturbed forest and pasture margins, indicating tolerance for light disturbance. It plays an important ecological role as a food source for large frugivores including tapirs, peccaries, and macaws that help disperse its large seeds. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, with stable populations across its broad Amazonian range.
