🌊 July 15 is Arctic Sea Ice Day ❄️ A global reminder of the critical role sea ice plays in regulating our planet’s climate. Did you know the melting of Arctic sea ice impacts more species than just polar bears? 🐅
Regions such as Asia and Australia are experiencing rising temperatures that trigger extreme weather events, ranging from severe droughts and prolonged fire seasons to intense floods and unpredictable weather patterns. These climate shifts are altering the temperate forest ecosystems that Amur tigers depend on. For example, changing rainfall and temperature patterns affect the growth of vegetation, which in turn disrupts the populations of deer and wild boar - the key prey species for these tigers.
As a keystone species, the Amur tiger is vital for maintaining ecosystem balance. However, climate change directly impacts this balance by reshaping food chains. More frequent forest fires and erratic weather degrade tiger habitats, while human activities like logging and agric...
