Within these habitats, a myriad of animals play vital roles, forming intricate interdependencies that contribute to the delicate balance of the natural world.

For centuries, indigenous communities have coexisted with wildlife, forging deep connections with the animal kingdom and relying on it for sustenance, cultural identity, and economic livelihoods.
