Birds Sense Global Warming
posted in Animal Species |Not only humans, birds can also sense the rising temperatures caused by Global Warming. Not only are the birds sensitive enough to feel the increasing mercury level but their reactions are also almost immediate.
Scientists from France have made extensive researches and are happy that the birds migrate to more suitable places. Though apparently it is a good sign, the balance in nature is going to be deeply affected with this trend. This is because different animals react differently to this climate change. The researchers are afraid that it is only the birds that migrate to a cooler place and it is not be the case for the insects which is the source of food for these birds. That would result into an ecological disaster and severe disbalance in nature.
There are other problems attached to this find. The researchers think that the habitat shift is essential and necessary and the birds have survived the climate change because of this. However, even when birds are quick to react, the researchers think that their reactions should be faster.
Another problem is that all the species are not reacting in the same manner; therefore, there is a danger of extinction of certain species of birds. As the “interaction between the species” is inadequate the fear of mismatches in decision making by the different animals and bird species threatens the balance in nature.
