Gelbhaarige Bergratte

The common bunomys (<em>Bunomys chrysocomus</em>) is a small rodent species found in diverse terrestrial and aquatic habitats, including tropical forests and adjacent ecosystems. This species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, reflecting a currently stable population without immediate conservation concerns. As a member of the family Muridae, the common bunomys is an endemic rodent of Sulawesi, Indonesia, where it typically inhabits montane forest environments at moderate to high elevations. The species often forages on the forest floor, feeding on seeds, fruits, fungi, and invertebrates. Its diet and foraging behavior make it an important contributor to seed dispersal and nutrient cycling in its native forest ecosystems. The common bunomys is typically nocturnal and solitary in its habits, as is characteristic of many rodents in its genus. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

Stieleiche

One of Europe's most important and widespread deciduous trees, the pedunculate oak can live over 1,000 years, reach 40 meters, and support the greatest biodiversity of any European tree species — over 2,300 species of insects, fungi, lichens, mosses, and birds directly depend on mature oaks. Found across Europe to western Asia in temperate forests, its hard, durable wood has been foundational to shipbuilding, architecture, and barrel making throughout history.
