Bobr Kanadskii

The largest rodent in North America, Canadian beavers weigh up to 32 kg and are master ecosystem engineers inhabiting rivers, lakes, and wetlands across Canada and the northern United States. By felling trees and constructing dams up to hundreds of meters long, beavers create ponds that provide habitat for hundreds of species. Their lodges and canals transform entire watersheds. Once nearly hunted to extinction for their fur, beaver populations have recovered strongly.

Dyadobacter jiangsuensis is a Gram-negative, orange-pigmented bacterium in the family Cytophagaceae, first isolated from soil samples in Jiangsu Province, China. It is aerobic, rod-shaped, and non-motile, with the capacity to degrade polysaccharides in its soil environment. The genus Dyadobacter is part of the diverse Bacteroidetes phylum widely distributed in terrestrial and freshwater habitats.
