Warm climate speeds up the evolution of reptiles

Scientists at Bristol University and the Royal Holloway Institute (University of London) have published the latest research results for reptile animal fossils.

Research results discovered 300 million years ago global warming has seriously destroyed tropical forests on Earth. This has led to the evolution of reptile evolution.

According to scientists, during the Stone Age about 300 million years ago, the Earth's climate is warm and humid, Europe and the continent of North America are rich in tropical forests.

However, later due to the increasingly hot and dry Earth's climate, it destroyed the tropical forests and formed a jungle oasis. Reptiles that live in tropical forests have been separated.

To adapt to climate change and habitat, they must evolve rapidly in different evolutionary ways. It is this that increases the diversity of organisms.

Scientists emphasize that although some animals always maintain diverse development through evolution and adaptation to living environments.

However, tropical areas such as the destroyed Amazon forest will have unimaginable consequences for the ecosystem.
