Habitat & Geographic Range

Cheetah

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, and flooded grasslands and savannas, among 9 distinct biome types spanning the Afrotropic and Palearctic realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Botswana, Iran, Kenya, Namibia, and Tanzania. Currently classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Common,Banded Bullfrog

Habitat

Inhabits tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests and tropical and subtropical coniferous forests within the Indomalayan biogeographic realm. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Distributed across Brunei, Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan.

Cheetah

猎豹是地球上奔跑最快的陆地动物，在非洲和伊朗草原上短距离冲刺速度可达112千米/小时。体型纤细，胸深腿长，具有标志性的黑色泪纹。与其他大型猫科动物不同，猎豹以吱鸣声和咕噜声交流。由于栖息地碎片化和与更大型捕食者的竞争，猎豹被列为易危，野外仅剩约7,000只。

Common,Banded Bullfrog

The common banded bullfrog (<em>Kaloula pulchra</em>) is a compact amphibian native to the Indomalayan biogeographic region, where it typically inhabits moist broadleaf forests, coniferous forests, and montane environments. Its geographic range spans several Southeast and East Asian countries, including Brunei, the Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan. The species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, reflecting a relatively stable population across its native range. It is often associated with humid forest floors and edge habitats, where moisture levels support its amphibian physiology. The banded bullfrog is recognizable by its stout body and the distinctive pale lateral stripe that runs along each side. It is known to shelter in soil crevices and leaf litter during dry periods, emerging to feed and breed after rainfall. Breeding typically occurs in temporary pools and flooded areas following monsoon rains, with males producing loud calls to attract mates. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
