Summary: It has been a disaster for flying foxes because at least 3500 fruit bats dropped dead from heat exhaustion as temperatures in Australia's eastern coast rose to almost 43 celsius. Students from the Universitity of Ulm in Gernmany have been analyzing the affects of the temperature and the survival of the bats. The killing of the fruit bats will have a serious knock-on effects in U.S.
Endangered species
Why is this species endangered? because of the extreme hot temperatures
What could prevent this organism from going extinct? by moving to another environment if necessary
List three things you learned from this article in your own words.I learned what hot temperature can do to some species and cause flyinf foxes to starve because they eat fruit bats.
What impact would the absence of this organism have on its ecosystem/community? Will cause species to start decreasing.
