a group of about 20 identified species with evolutionary adaptations to rapid climate change

Scientists think that keeps them from overheating.Meanwhile, pink salmon have adapted to warmer waters by spawning earlier in the season to protect their sensitive eggs.And wild thyme plants in Europe are producing more repellent oils to protect themselves against the herbivores that become more common when it's warm.These plants and animals belong to a group of about 20 identified species with evolutionary adaptations to rapid climate change,including snapping turtles,wood frogs,knotweed,and silver spotted skipper butterflies.
