バチジア・ロセラ（Bacidia rosella）はラマリナ科の痂状地衣類で、IUCNレッドリストでは絶滅寸前（CR）に分類されている極希少種である。生態的継続性の長い老齢林の古木のなめらかな樹皮上にのみ生育し、適切な老齢樹木生育地がほぼ消失したことにより、生息地は極端に限定されている。老木の保護と自然林管理の廃止なくして本種の存続は困難な状況にある。

Bamboo bear

ジャイアントパンダ（Ailuropoda melanoleuca）は中国中部の山岳竹林に生息し、体重最大125キログラムになるクマ科の動物で、食肉目に分類されながら食事の99%を竹が占める特異な食性を持つ。偽の親指（橈側種子骨）を使って竹の茎を把握し、1日14時間もの採食時間を費やす。2016年にIUCNレッドリストで絶滅危惧から危急（VU）へ改善されており、保護繁殖プログラムと自然保護区の設置が個体数回復に貢献している。
