Range

Widely distributed across Africa (8 countries), Asia (5 countries), Europe (Spain, United Kingdom), North America (Costa Rica, United States), Oceania and the Pacific (8 countries), and South America (6 countries).

Tiger

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Distributed across Colombia and Ecuador. Currently classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Arabicakaffee

Coffee (Coffea arabica) is a woody shrub or small tree in the family Rubiaceae, native to the montane forests of Ethiopia and Yemen, where it was discovered and first cultivated before spreading globally to become one of the world's most economically important crops. Plants grow 2–10 metres tall in the wild but are typically pruned to 2–3 metres in cultivation, producing glossy elliptical leaves and clusters of fragrant white flowers followed by cherry-like drupes that ripen from green through yellow to deep red. Each fruit contains two seeds—the coffee beans—surrounded by layers of sweet pulp, parchment, and silver skin. Coffea arabica is a diploid tetraploid (2n = 44) that produces smoother, more aromatic coffee than its sibling species Coffea canephora (Robusta). Wild populations in Ethiopian highland forests represent an important reservoir of genetic diversity for the global coffee industry and are threatened by deforestation and climate change, which is altering the geographic suitability of arabica cultivation. Commercial plantations extend from Colombia, Brazil, and Central America through East Africa to India, Indonesia, and Vietnam. As a shade-tolerant understorey plant in its native montane habitat, Coffea arabica supports biodiversity in agroforestry systems. Despite its vast cultivation, wild arabica populations face significant conservation concern.

Tiger

The largest wild cat on Earth, tigers can exceed 300 kg and inhabit forests from the Russian Far East to Southeast Asia. Solitary ambush predators with distinctive orange and black striped coats that provide camouflage in dappled light. Critically endangered, with fewer than 4,000 remaining in the wild due to poaching and deforestation.
