A plural therian is called an ecosystem.
A polycule of plural therians is a trophic chain.

WHY WOLVES? 🐺
Wolves are essential for resilient, healthy ecosystems.
As top-level predators, they are influential in shaping and maintaining the structure of their natural communities. Wolves have a trickle-down effect on other populations, a phenomenon known as a “trophic cascade".

The imposition of Big AI as digital apex predator is going to cause a trophic collapse of the whole ecosystem.
It is not just traffic; publishers are losing experiential control as AI agents are bypassing the web’s rules of engagement, says Anita Srinivasan. Robots.txt was never a secure gate, but verifiable agent identity may decide whether the open web survives or collapses into walled gardens.
AI Agents are Rewriting the Web’s Rules of Engagement. Here’s a Way to Fix it.
Anita Srinivasan explains how AI agents are breaking the web’s economic model, why robots.txt failed, and how cryptographic identity may restore control.
