🎉 Research Complete!

Congratulations, Scientist! You have successfully discovered all 17 species in the Sundarbans Mangrove ecosystem.

You have mastered the understanding of the 10% Energy Rule and the complex food web of this UNESCO world heritage site.

The Sundarbans Ecosystem

Project Summary

Explore the world's largest mangrove forest (UNESCO Site). This project demonstrates the 10% Rule of Energy Transfer: 90% of energy is lost as heat at each level, requiring many plants to support one top predator.
