Global Warming Affects Polar Animals By Brandon Chalk J.T. Nelson Jacob Steinbach By Brandon Chalk J.T. Nelson Jacob Steinbach

Penguins HABITAT: Penguins generally live on islands and remote continental regions free from land predators Most nests are lined with plants, stones, or mud Some penguins live in caves or along cliffs.

Penguins Penguins are starting to desert parts of Antarctica because the icy waters are getting too hot Penguins main food source, which is krill, is quickly depleting because of Global Warming Penguins are starting to desert parts of Antarctica because the icy waters are getting too hot Penguins main food source, which is krill, is quickly depleting because of Global Warming

Seals HABITAT: Most live in the Arctic and Antarctic They have a layer of thick fat that is called blubber to survive the cold waters Blubber can store energy when there isn’t enough food They like deep salt water because it will help them survive They also live on islands and rocky shores, in cracks on the ice and in and some in warm climates HABITAT: Most live in the Arctic and Antarctic They have a layer of thick fat that is called blubber to survive the cold waters Blubber can store energy when there isn’t enough food They like deep salt water because it will help them survive They also live on islands and rocky shores, in cracks on the ice and in and some in warm climates

Seals  Their habitat is slowly depleting  Seals breeding habitats are slowing, and they’re having to move farther inland because the ice shelf is breaking  Their habitat is slowly depleting  Seals breeding habitats are slowing, and they’re having to move farther inland because the ice shelf is breaking

Polar Bears  Habitat  Found in cold ocean waters or on ice adrift  Found all over the Arctic regions  Their main habitat is pack ice  Seals are their main food source  Habitat  Found in cold ocean waters or on ice adrift  Found all over the Arctic regions  Their main habitat is pack ice  Seals are their main food source

Polar Bears  Polar bears depend on sea ice as a platform so they can hunt seals  Global warming is now the biggest threat to polar bears  It is destroying all of the ice that they need to survive on  Research has found that the cubs are not surviving as well  Researchers found adult polar bears didn’t weigh as much  Polar bears depend on sea ice as a platform so they can hunt seals  Global warming is now the biggest threat to polar bears  It is destroying all of the ice that they need to survive on  Research has found that the cubs are not surviving as well  Researchers found adult polar bears didn’t weigh as much

How Global Warming affects those animals Global warming is real, and it is happening more quickly in Antarctica and the North Pole than anywhere else If Global Warming takes off another Ice Shelf and it melts, the sea level would rise extremely, leaving the animals without any habitats Polar Animals and Global Warming Global warming is real, and it is happening more quickly in Antarctica and the North Pole than anywhere else If Global Warming takes off another Ice Shelf and it melts, the sea level would rise extremely, leaving the animals without any habitats Polar Animals and Global Warming
