Habitat & Geographic Range
藍鯨
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 11 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Widely distributed across Asia (Taiwan), Europe (4 countries), and South America (Colombia, Ecuador). Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.
大齿蟾
Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.
藍鯨
蓝鲸是地球上已知存在过的最大动物,体长可达33米,体重达200吨,其心脏单独就重达一辆小型轿车的重量。分布于各大洋,在极地觅食地和热带繁殖地之间进行迁徙。它们是滤食性动物,每日可消耗多达4吨磷虾。蓝鲸被列为濒危物种,20世纪捕鲸活动使其濒临灭绝,目前全球种群估计约为1万至2.5万头。
大齿蟾
The Common Lazy Toad (<em>Oreolalax major</em>) is an amphibian in the family Megophryidae, classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species typically inhabits freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands, favoring cool, humid environments associated with mountain streams and adjacent riparian vegetation. As a member of the family Megophryidae, it is adapted to fast-flowing, clear mountain streams where larvae typically develop among leaf litter and gravel on the stream bed. The Common Lazy Toad is generally associated with the highland and montane zones of its range, relying on intact forest cover and unpolluted water bodies for reproduction and larval development. Its Least Concern status reflects an assessment of stable population trends, though like many amphibians it may be sensitive to changes in water quality, habitat loss, and emerging infectious diseases such as chytridiomycosis. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
