Agachona común

La agachadiza común (Gallinago gallinago) está clasificada como En Peligro Crítico (CR) en la Lista Roja de la UICN. Enfrenta un riesgo extremadamente alto de extinción en estado silvestre debido al severo declive poblacional y la pérdida de hábitat.

Lobo gris

El lobo gris (Canis lupus), el cánido silvestre más ampliamente distribuido, se extiende desde América del Norte a través de Eurasia en hábitats diversos que incluyen la tundra, bosques y praderas. Son animales altamente sociales que viven en manadas familiares lideradas por una pareja reproductora dominante. Como depredadores clave, los lobos regulan las poblaciones de presas y moldean profundamente la estructura del ecosistema, como demostró su reintroducción en Yellowstone. Antes muy perseguidos, las poblaciones se están recuperando en muchas regiones.
