Global warming is a big problem for Snowy Owls. It hurts the Snowy Owls in two different and dangerous ways: loss of habitat, and hurting the food chain. The first way, the loss of habitat is caused by loss of snow- due to global warming. The other way, hurting the food chain, is also caused by global warming but does not hurt the Snowy Owls directly. There are fewer plants this way, and the Snowy Owl's prey (lemmings, hares, etc.) have less food. We already said that Snowy Owl population is very abrupt so their population is getting lesser and lesser. Those are the things that endanger the Snowy Owl.
As with most owls, the mother stays and keeps the young warm, whilst keeping predators at bay. The father owl hunts continuously to keep his family fed, often lining the nest edge with prey that is at that time surplus to requirements. Once the young snowy owls are too demanding for the male snowy owl, and large enough to leave, the female snowy owl joins in the hunt and supply of fresh prey. Eventually, the young snowy owls are encouraged to chase their own prey, initially caught but not killed by the parent snowy owls.
The female Snowy owl has excellent camouflage, this being the while body with dark brown lines ( called bars ) on her body. The male snowy owl tends to be pure white except for 3 bars on his tail.
Weight 1134-2000g (40-70oz) average female 1707g (60oz), male 1612g (57oz)
yes. Because of people hunting them, poulution, gloabal warming, and loss of enviroment. The Spanish lynx, and the Iberian lynx are endangered, but the Canada lynx and the bobcat are not endangered. Hunting and habitat loss are the reasons for the two Old World lynx species being endangered. Global Warming and pollution have nothing to do with their current situation at all.
Great horned owls and snowy owls share similarities in being nocturnal birds of prey, but they differ in physical appearance. Great horned owls have prominent ear tufts and mottled brown feathers, while snowy owls have white plumage with black markings. In a Venn diagram, their common characteristics would include being predatory birds and nocturnal, with their differing traits represented in separate circles.
Yes.
North America is affected because all countries are affected. Global pollution is blown all over the world so all countries are experiencing global warming.
because you mother said so
Mostly every plant is being affected. There is not just one.
Polar bears are not a cause of global warming. They are being affected by climate change in that their habitat is decreasing in size (as the sea ice is melting).
Polar bears are being affected by the reduction of their habitat, the sea ice. Other animals may be being affected, but there is not enough data to be certain yet.
The world is certainly being affected by global warming. Rising sea levels, unless stopped, will mean many coastal cities and croplands will be drowned.
Yes Egypt being on the globe is warming as well.
Penguins. They live on fish and krill. Krill supplies are being affected by warmer waters and this is affecting the whole food chain.
Pandas
Pandas and polar bears are affected by global warming because their habitats are being destroyed. For the pandas, bamboo forests are being affected by changes in rainfall and temperature. For the polar bears, Arctic sea ice is melting, more and more each year, and this makes the bears' seal-hunting period shorter every year. Weak female bears cannot bear and successfully rear cubs.
Everyone is affected by global warming, in some way or another. Coastal areas around the world are threatened by flooding from rising sea levels, and severe storms which can combine with high tides to flood croplands, city suburbs and subways. Countries in Africa are experiencing droughts and famine. North America and Europe suffer from extreme heat waves and extreme winters. Thousands of people have died already just from the heat waves.
