Scientists: the first victims of global warming will become lizard

Ученые: первыми жертвами глобального потепления станут ящерицыThe result of global warming on the planet will be the disappearance of the lizards.

As a result of global warming the first to die lizards. This was stated by scientists from the University of Clemens in the United States.

In the USA scientists from the University of Clemens, has announced the possibility of the extinction of lizards. The claim is that by 2080, 40% of reptiles die. This is due primarily to the cold-blooded lizards that are not predisposed to self-regulation of body temperature. So that reptiles adapt to environmental conditions. According to experts, sudden changes in temperature can cause the lizards are unlikely to survive.

In order to generate the forecast, researchers led by Michael Sears has resorted to the use of computer models related to the activity of lizards. Scientists have tried to learn about the impact of shady places on the ability of reptiles to control the level of its temperature. According to the biologists, reptiles do best when they get even small shaded areas. Michael Sears noted that, if you die, the plants casting a shadow lizards cannot control their own temperature.

Scientists have paid special attention to the vulnerability of lizards about climate change. Besides, he called them the first victims of global warming.
