A black-crested macaque (Macaca nigra) eats the leaves of an unidentified species of tree in Tangkoko forest, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. "Climate change is one of the main factors affecting biodiversity worldwide at an alarming rate, " according to a team of scientists led by Antonio Acini Vasquez-Aguilar in their research paper first published in March 2024 on Environ Monit Assess. It might shift the geographic distribution of species, including species which depend greatly on forest cover, they wrote. In other words, climate change may reduce the habitat suitability of primate species, that could force them to move out of safe habitats and face more potential conflicts with human, another team of scientists say. A report by a team led by Marine Joly, based on research conducted since 2012 to 2020, confirms that the temperature is increasing by up to 0.2 degree Celsius per year in Tangkoko forest, and the overall fruit abundance is also decreased. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) concludes that rising temperatures have led to—among others—ecological, behavioral, and physiological changes in wildlife species and biodiversity. "In addition to increased rates of disease and degraded habitats, climate change is also causing changes in species themselves, which threaten their survival, " they wrote on IUCN.org.
