About These Birds
águia-de-cabeça-branca
The bald eagle is the national bird and symbol of the United States. Once endangered due to DDT pesticide use, it made a remarkable recovery and was removed from the endangered species list in 2007. These powerful raptors build the largest tree nests of any bird, some weighing over two tons.
King Penguin
O pinguim-rei é o segundo maior pinguim do mundo, com manchas auriculares alaranjadas brilhantes, encontrado em ilhas subantárticas onde forma colônias reprodutivas densas.
