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.
Págalo rabero
El págalo colilargo (Stercorarius longicaudus) está clasificado como Preocupación Menor (LC) en la Lista Roja de la UICN. Es una especie ampliamente distribuida y abundante en su rango, con poblaciones estables y sin preocupaciones de conservación inmediatas.
