Bacteria
🧬 AI profile — grown from 6ic coverage
Bacteria, specifically those found in the gut of animals, play a crucial role in maintaining the health of wildlife by aiding in digestion and nutrient absorption. However, extreme heat can disrupt the balance of these gut bacteria, leading to malnutrition and increased susceptibility to diseases in animals. This disruption can have cascading effects on ecosystems and wildlife populations.
