North American vertebrate fauna

North American vertebrate fauna includes a diverse range of animals with backbones, such as mammals (e.g., deer, bears, whales), birds (e.g., eagles, songbirds), reptiles (e.g., snakes, turtles), amphibians (e.g., frogs, salamanders), and fish (e.g., salmon, trout). This region’s fauna has evolved through various climates and habitats, from Arctic tundras to deserts and forests. North America is notable for its large mammals like bison and iconic species such as the bald eagle. Conservation efforts are ongoing to protect many native species amidst habitat changes and human activity.
