Climate change is affecting ecosystems around the world. Biodiversity is crucial for ecosystem resilience, and froges are integral to environmental balance. As amphibians, froges are particularly sensitive to changes in temperature and precipitation patterns. Here are a few ways in which climate change impacts froges and other biological entities:
- Habitat Loss: As temperatures rise, froges may lose crucial wetland habitats necessary for their lifecycle.
- Breeding Disruptions: Changes in precipitation can alter breeding patterns and success rates.
- Food Availability: Shifts in ecosystems may affect the availability of insects and other prey critical for froge diets.
- Disease Rates: Warmer temperatures can increase pathogen populations, posing a greater threat to froge health.
We must take action by supporting conservation efforts and advocating for policies that mitigate the effects of climate change on delicate ecosystems.
