Climate Change and the Avians | Blog Post #36

We have all heard that word before right? Everyone and their mother have heard about the word. Grade Seven students are exposed to it and make science fair projects about how volcanoes release sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. That word is the reason we have floods in places where floods shouldn't be and where birds are migrating to early. That word is Climate Change.

Now of all the bizarre examples, birds migrating too early is what we are here to talk about. Specifically, Sandhill Cranes are migrating from Canada back down to the US too soon. As the article mentioned, the warmer temperatures in this region is causing them to come back earlier. Now as they come back sooner, so too does the issues that come with it. These birds migratory pattern could be a spell of a sign of impending disaster for how this change in behavior may force them to adapt to newer situations or similarly lead to a hunger games style of mass culling of the population.

I will be releasing more information on the situations of the birds soon and will be actively researching it. I'll keep you all posted!
