Why happened in England that changed the bark on the trees light to dark?

The industrial revolution in England (the black smoke form all the factory chimneys) produced allot of environmental pollution and the trees in the worst affected areas were covered in soot. Now thankfully this pollution has ceased and the tree trunks are no longer black...I understand that the areas of black peppered moth variants are now reverting to the light colored variety.

∙ 13y agoI don't know about England, but in America, trees' bark changed colour because, during the Industrial Revolution, so much coal was being released in to the atmosphere that it was causing discolouration in the bark. This also meant that the animals living there, specifically the moths that camouflaged with the pale white bark became easier to find and eat. The few black moths that were around at the time flourished, and the population of the moths increased drastically. Hope this answers your question!

Can lions climb trees?
Lions do not usually climb trees. Trees in Africa are the province of the leopard, who drags its prey up into trees to protect it from lions. Whether or not lions are able to climb trees depends entirely upon the size of the tree. They sometimes lounge in low (very strong) branches, and can pursue a leopard into a tree, provided (once again) the tree has low, very strong branches. But a leopard can always escape by climbing higher, because it is so much lighter and smaller than a lion. In addition, lionesses who have had male leopard's cubs (which rarely if ever happens in the wild but has happened in captivity), have shown great frustration when their cubs start climbing trees and they can't go up after them.
