common Indian apple snail

<em>Pila globosa</em>, commonly known as the common Indian apple snail, is a freshwater gastropod mollusk in the family Ampullariidae. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species is noted to occupy both terrestrial and aquatic habitats, reflecting the amphibious life history typical of apple snails, which can survive periods of drought by aestivating in moist soil. Apple snails in this family are generally found in tropical and subtropical freshwater ecosystems, including ponds, rice paddies, rivers, and marshes. Specific country-level distribution data are not detailed in current records. Diet information for this species is not available in current records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

gray wolf

가장 넓은 분포 범위를 가진 야생 갯과 동물인 회색늑대는 북아메리카에서 유라시아에 걸쳐 툰드라, 숲, 초원 등 다양한 서식지에 분포합니다. 우세한 번식 쌍이 이끄는 가족 단위 무리를 이루어 생활하는 고도로 사회적인 동물입니다. 최상위 포식자로서 먹이 개체군을 조절하고 생태계 구조를 근본적으로 형성하는데, 옐로스톤에서의 재도입 사례가 이를 잘 보여줍니다. 한때 심각하게 박해받았으나 많은 지역에서 개체군이 회복 중입니다.
