Widely distributed across Africa (Seychelles), Asia (Japan), Europe (5 countries), North America (7 countries), Oceania and the Pacific (Marshall Islands, Vanuatu), and South America (5 countries). Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Arenimonas donghaensis is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium first isolated from coastal sandy sediments of the East Sea (Donghai) off Korea. It inhabits marine sandy environments and coastal sediments. This aerobic chemoheterotroph decomposes organic matter in sandy coastal and shallow marine substrates.

loup

The most widely distributed wild canid, gray wolves range from North America across Eurasia in diverse habitats including tundra, forests, and grasslands. Highly social animals living in family packs led by a dominant breeding pair. As keystone predators, wolves regulate prey populations and profoundly shape ecosystem structure, as demonstrated by their reintroduction in Yellowstone. Once heavily persecuted, populations are recovering in many regions.
