They found that the territory where these plants and animals live has moved north by an average of six kilometers every ten years. In Europe, some butterflies now live as much as one hundred kilometers to the north because of changes linked to higher temperatures.
E. The new report says many areas experienced unusual weather in two thousand and two. Most of Asia, for example, was warmer than usual. India had unusually high temperatures in April and May.

The scientists found that some of the animals use sticks as tools to remove insects from holes in trees. Other orangutans猩猩 use leaves to crush insects or gather water.
Professors Parmesan and Yohe used similar methods to examine one hundred and seventy-two kinds of wildlife. They examined the timing of events in the spring, such as the appearance of flowers and the reproduction繁殖 of animals. They found that these events happened an average of two days earlier than normal every ten years.
