Animals change their color due to global warming

Scientists from the Russian Academy of Sciences have found that some white-furred animals such as hares and weasels are changing their color to better camouflage themselves . Blame it on global warming , which is making snow disappear from their habitats. White animals thus become easy targets for predators. According to the study carried out, certain animals that were white in winter have undergone genetic changes not to be white during a certain period of time. There have even been cases of some species in Ireland that have completely stopped their winter "bleaching".
