abstract: Provides a curated taxonomic backbone of mammal species from Peru based
  on Pacheco et al. (2021) "Lista actualizada de la diversidad de los mamíferos del
  Perú y una propuesta para su actualización" <https://doi.org/10.15381/rpb.v28i4.21019>.
  The package includes standardized species data, occurrence by ecoregions, endemism
  status, and tools for validating and matching scientific names through exact and
  fuzzy procedures. It is designed as a lightweight and dependable reference for ecological,
  environmental, biogeographic, and conservation workflows that require reliable species
  information for Peruvian mammals.
