英语百科

Sentinel species

(重定向自Canary in the coal mine)
A domestic canary, of the type historically used to detect gas in coal mines.
Rabbit used to check for leaks at Sarin nerve gas production plant.

Sentinel species are organisms, often animals, used to detect risks to humans by providing advance warning of a danger. The terms primarily apply in the context of environmental hazards rather than those from other sources. Some animals can act as sentinels because they may be more susceptible or have greater exposure to a particular hazard than humans in the same environment. People have long observed animals for signs of impending hazards or evidence of environmental threats. Plants and other living organisms have also been used for these purposes.
