wildlife
Let an agent describe the wildlife of a region with sourced data, explain conservation status and law, support safe and respectful wildlife observation, and address human-wildlife interactions.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent describe the wildlife of a region with sourced data, explain conservation status and law, support safe and respectful wildlife observation, and address human-wildlife interactions.
Undomesticated animals, and in broader usage plants and other organisms, living in natural or semi-natural habitats, considered collectively for a region such as the wildlife of a country; wildlife is studied in ecology, protected by conservation law, managed by agencies and enjoyed through observation and tourism.
What it is for: Understanding and protecting wild organisms.
It can be describe the wildlife of a region; explain conservation status and protections; support wildlife watching and reporting; address human-wildlife conflict and safety.
