волк

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, deserts and xeric shrublands, and tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, among 13 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

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.

Chroococcus turicensis is a species of cyanobacteria in the family Chroococcaceae, with the specific epithet turicensis referring to Turicum, the Latin name for the city of Zurich, Switzerland, suggesting that the species was first described or commonly documented from Swiss freshwater habitats. Chroococcus species are small, coccoid cyanobacteria occurring in pairs or tetrads within gelatinous sheaths in freshwater and moist environments. Chroococcus turicensis has been recorded from lakes and other freshwater localities in central Europe, including the alpine and pre-alpine lakes of Switzerland. Alpine and subalpine freshwater bodies are generally oligotrophic, and the cyanobacteria that inhabit them tend to be well adapted to low nutrient concentrations and clear, well-lit waters. The freshwater phytoplankton of Alpine lakes has been extensively studied due to the ecological and economic importance of these water bodies as drinking water reservoirs and indicators of environmental change. Chroococcus turicensis contributes to the diversity of the cyanobacterial component of such communities. Like all Chroococcus species, it is a prokaryote whose conservation status has not been assessed by the IUCN.

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.
