In fiecare an, organizatia germana de conservare a naturii NABU alege animalele anului. Sunt alese speciile care au cea mai mare nevoie de protectie pentru anul respectiv. Ele nu sunt intotdeauna cele mai dragalase sau cele mai simpatice. Ele sunt importante !

3 Categoria amfibiene

Este broasca cu burta galbena sau izvorasul cu burta galbena. Poate fi intalnita des in baltile temporare. Glandele pielii produc otrava , toxice pentru om . Daca este in pericol isi arata burta galbena cu pete negre , adica faptul ca este otravitoare !!! Este pe cale de disparitie in Germania .

6 Fluturele anului

Este Spurge Hawk-moth sau Sfinxul laptelui cainelui. Larvele se dezvolta pe laptele cainelui, o planta toxica atat pentru ierbivore , cat si pentru majoritatea insectelor fitofage. Culorile stridente ale larvei si ale fluturelui , atrag atentia asupra toxicitatii sale. Habitatele preferate sunt pajistile uscate, calde , bogate in laptele cainelui. Este un zburator excelent. Poate fi intalnit si la malul marii , si la 2000 m altitudine. Agricultura intensa si constructiile i-au redus habitatul.

1. The bird of the year

It's the European Green Woodpecker, or "ghionoaia verde" as we call it in Romania. It leaves in the old trees. Because of habitat shrinking, it's endangered...

2. The wild animal

It's the European Bison. The last wild bison was shot in the Caucasus- 1927. In Romania there are just a few bisons...

3. The amphibian category

It's the yellow-bellied toad. Can be often found in the temporary water puddles. Its skin glands produce a poison that is toxic to humans. If it's in danger, it shows its yellow with black patches belly, which shows that it's poisonous!!! It's endangered in Germany.

4. The fish of the year

It's the sturgeon. There are species that can reach over 5 meters length and  100 years. It's endangered because of extensive fishing and water pollution. The caviar, so appreciated, is actually the sturgeon's eggs...

6. The butterfly of the year.

It's the Spurge Hawk moth, or the leafy spurge sphinx. The larvae  grow on the leafy spurge, a plant that is toxic for both herbivores and the majority of the phytophagous insects. The larva's and butterfly's bright colors draw attention to their toxicity. The favorite habitats are the dry, warm, rich in leafy spurge habitats. It's an excellent flyer. Can be also found on the sea shore, and at 2000 meters altitude. The intensive agriculture and constructions have reduced it's habitat.
