20、year it gets quite a bit worse for bunnies. And no, not because the kids like to pull their ears. The culprit is climate change, and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US, Take the Lower Keys Marsh rabbit, for instance
21、. An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys, this species of cottontail is a great swimmer - it lives on the islands! - but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, an ocean level rise of only 0.6
22、meters will send these ys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat (栖息地) completely. The snowshoe hare, on the other hand, has a color issue.

26、 cant go any higher. The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat heats up. The volcano rabbit has the same problem. These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico, and recent studies have shown that the lower range of t
27、heir habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters, but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher, so they are stuck in the middle.
