Earth warming to genetically alter animals

Research results and experiments by scientists at the University of Oregon (USA) have confirmed many animals are genetically modified to adapt to the phenomenon of global warming.

Most genetically altered phenomena are intended to cope with changes in weather such as increasing or decreasing seasons. Small animals such as squirrels, some birds and insects have the ability to reproduce quickly to change the laws of survival. Meanwhile, larger animals appear to be difficult to genetically adapt to new living conditions.

The data collected for decades shows that climate change has led to genetic changes that can be inherited in animal populations. In the past 40 years, climate change has been faster, making many animals migrate towards warmer areas of the Earth, grow faster and give birth earlier.

However, scientists warn that these genetic changes only take place in the changing seasons of the year, not because of higher temperatures in the summer. So if mankind does not endeavor to reduce the impact of climate change that is happening at a fast pace, the natural community familiar with humans will gradually disappear.
