Entoloma elodes es un pequeño hongo de espora rosada con un sombrero higrofanoso que se descolora al secarse y un olor característico. Crece en praderas húmedas, pastizales pantanosos y márgenes boscosas húmedas en Europa templada. Este hongo ecológicamente sensible habita en hábitats de pastizales de influencia húmeda pobres en nutrientes y sin mejorar.

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.
