Climate change has a widespread impact across the globe, especially on animals.

Animals from all different regions and habitats are affected by the changing climate, whether directly from rising temperatures or their food source becoming harder to find.

While this list includes 15 species, it isn't exhaustive. Many other animals are feeling the impacts of the shifting global climate all over the world.
