Les juvéniles de macaque à craché noir de Sulawesi (Macaca nigra) se nourrissent de fruits alors qu'ils sont assis sur une branche d'un arbre dans la réserve naturelle de Tangkoko, au nord de Sulawesi, en Indonésie. La protection de la faune à travers le monde pourrait considérablement améliorer le captage et le stockage du carbone naturel en superchargeant les puits de carbone de l'écosystème, selon Oswald J. Schmitz, le professeur Oastler d'écologie de la population et de la communauté à l'école de l'environnement de Yale, publié sur Phys.Org sur 28 mars 2023.

Juveniles of Sulawesi black-crested macaque (Macaca nigra) are feeding on fruit as they are sitting on a branch of a tree in Tangkoko Nature Reserve, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Protecting wildlife across the world could significantly enhance natural carbon capture and storage by supercharging ecosystem carbon sinks, according to Oswald J. Schmitz, the Oastler Professor of Population and Community Ecology at Yale School of the Environment, as published on Phys.Org on March 28, 2023._Wildlife species, throughout their interaction with the environment, are the missing link between biodiversity and climate, Schmitz says. This interaction means rewilding can be among the best nature-based climate solutions available to humankind._The study, conducted and co-authored by 15 scientists from eight countries, was first published in Nature Climate Change. It reveals that wild animals play a critical role controlling the carbon cycle in terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems through a wide range of processes including foraging, nutrient deposition, disturbance, organic carbon deposition, and seed dispersal._The report points out that endangering animal populations to the point where they become extinct could flip the ecosystems they inhabit from carbon sinks to carbon sources._Macaques are well recognised as major primate seed dispersers in Asia, according to a 2018 research paper published on International Journal of Primatology written by Yamato Tsuji and Hsiu-Hui Su (accessed through Springer).
