Global Disaster!


Wolverines threatened by global warming, government claims

    July 2007: A female wolverine and her cubs being taken in the Gravelly Range of southwest Montana. Wolverines need deep mountain snows to survive, but the government said Friday, Feb. 1, 2013, that anticipated warming temperatures in coming decades will shrink their habitat, putting the species in danger of extinction. (AP)



I have read an article on the Wolverines might go extinct because of the global warming. The snow is highly important because the female wolverines need the snow to dig the dens to raise their young. If the snow disappears then the wolverines cannot have the dens for their young to live in in the first year of their lives. I think that this article is important because these animals might go extinct because of the global warming. If we lose this species we would lose a big link in the food chain. You don't see wolverines everyday. You might not be able to see them any more at all. Please, click HERE to read more.
