Mammal that mates itself to death will struggle under climate change, scientists say

In the latest paper, the scientists found that if this marsupial experiences warmer temperatures during the early stages of its life, it may be less capable of adapting to and surviving the winter.

Stawski and colleagues then monitored various factors such as body mass and the activity levels of the animals. In the second test, the initial temperature in the chamber began at 14 degrees Celsius and was reduced to 10 degrees after three hours. This has significant implications for the yellow-footed antechinus given temperatures in Australia are expected to rise with climate change, according to the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation —an Australian government agency.

The males often die from “excess copulation”, so clearly the females will suffer most from climate change.

99.9999999% of Species that have ever lived are extinct. Many or most due to change in climate in one form or another.

Well the 'mating itself to death' is a poor start.

Climate changes everyday ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
