A pair of green imperial pigeon (Ducula aenea) is photographed as they are perching on a tree-top in a vegetated area near Mount Tangkoko and Mount Duasudara in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Based on research conducted from 2012 to 2020, a team of scientists led by Marine Joly reports that the temperature is increasing by up to 0.2 degree Celsius per year in Tangkoko forest, and the overall fruit abundance is also decreased. "There is rapidly growing evidence for the negative effects of high temperatures on the behavior, physiology, breeding, and survival of various bird, mammal, and reptile species around the world, " said Dr. Nicholas Pattinson, a scientist from University of Cape Town, as quoted in another publication on Newsweek. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) agrees, saying that rising temperatures have led to ecological, behavioral, and physiological changes in wildlife species and biodiversity. "In addition to increased rates of disease and degraded habitats, climate change is also causing changes in species themselves, which threaten their survival, " they wrote on IUCN.org.
