Ecology and nature conservation are fields of practical importance to the future of different species (including ours) and the future of the planet Earth. At the same time, they should be interconnected with other scientific fields, including biomedical sciences, and approached more holistically. Transdisciplinary approaches and practical interpretations of ecology research are now more than needed and should be, thus, encouraged.
