摘要
一项新的研究表明,一些动物正在慢慢长出更大的喙、腿和耳朵。随着地球变暖,它们可以通过这种方式更好地为自己降温。“我们在谈到气候变化时,时常会问:‘人类如何应对气候变化?’‘我们以后怎么生活?’但我们应该知道,动物也必须面对这些变化。”澳大利亚迪肯大学的萨拉·瑞丁说道。如果动物不采取任何措施来维持正常体温,它们就会死亡。
A new study shows that some animals are slowly growing larger beaks,legs and ears.In this way they can cool themselves down more easily as the Earth gets warmer.“When we talk about the climate change,we often ask‘What can humans do with this?’‘How can we live in the future?’But we should know that animals also have to face these changes,”said Sara Ryding,from Deakin University,Australia.If animals do nothing t o keep t h e i r normal body temperature,they will die.
