gray wolf
最も広い分布域を持つ野生のイヌ科動物であるハイイロオオカミは、北アメリカからユーラシアにかけてのツンドラ、森林、草原などの多様な生息地に分布します。優位な繁殖ペアに率いられた家族単位の群れで生活する高度に社会的な動物です。キーストーン捕食者として獲物個体群を調整し、生態系の構造を根本的に形成することは、イエローストーンでの再導入により実証されています。かつて激しく迫害されましたが、多くの地域で個体群は回復しつつあります。
Rice
人類史上最も重要な食用作物である稲は、世界人口の半数以上を養い、アジア、アフリカ、ラテンアメリカの主食穀物である。約9,000年前に中国の長江流域で野生の Oryza rufipogon から栽培化された稲作は、文明、景観、生態系を形成してきた。湛水田耕作は渡り鳥、両生類、水生無脊椎動物のための広大な湿地生息地を作り出す一方、大量のメタンを排出する。
