Biome: The Saiga Antelopes

Our planet has thousands of different species of animals and they all live in different biomes. A biome is a community of plants and animals that live in different environments and climates. There are seven different biomes and the one I am focusing on is the mountainous biome. In this biome, lives the the coolest, unique and craziest looking animal called the Saiga Antelopes. In this mountainous biome, it is getting warmer and more humid due to the changing environment, which is changing the plants and animals that live there. Due to this changing environment in this particular biome where the antelopes lived this allowed new bacteria to get them sick and die.
The warmer weather and environment stressed the antelopes. With it warming because of climate change it started to stress the antelopes. These antelopes weren’t used to living in these hotter and humid conditions. Does anyone know what happens when you get stressed? Well you get sick. The heat did that to the antelopes, but because the weather changed so quickly in this particular year and the antelopes still had on their wooly coats from the …show more content…
Normally when the temperature is nice and cool the bacteria just sits in their nose and plays with their boogers. When the weather warmed up it didn’t have the same stress effect as it did on the antelope before instead, when the weather warmed up the bacteria grew faster. After the bacteria grew rapidly it moved from just living in their nose to into the blood and then from the blood it went to all of the organs of the antelopes. After the bacteria spread throughout their body it made many of the antelope’s sick in fact many of them died. This whole process happened because of the climate changing. It is very sad because due to the warming of their environment this antelope population went from 300,000 to 100,000 all because of the shift of how the bacteria and the animals
