Climate change is threatening more than 3,500 animal species: Study

The survival of more than 3,500 animal species is in jeopardy thanks to the impacts of climate change, a new study has found. This threat applies to at least a quarter of the species in six different classes, including arachnids and chilopodans (centipedes), as well as anthozoans and hydrozoans (marine invertebrates related to jellyfish and…
