About These Birds
シロエリハゲワシ
The griffon vulture is one of Europe's largest flying birds and a crucial scavenger in Mediterranean ecosystems. These social birds nest in large cliff colonies and can soar for hours using thermals without flapping. Vulture populations faced a crisis from the veterinary drug diclofenac, which proved fatal when consumed through contaminated carcasses.
Peregrine Falcon
世界最速の動物として知られるハヤブサで、急降下時には時速320キロメートルを超えることがある。南極を除く全大陸に生息し、都市部での繁殖も増加している。
