How animal poop helps ecosystems adapt to climate change

Vicuñas enhance nutrient-poor ecosystems in the Andes, aiding plant growth amidst climate change challenges.

These animals have communal toilets!

They survive way above the treeline and place their toilets in the bare space where the glaciers have disappeared due to catastrophic climate change.

Typically it could take generations for vegetation to establish itself.

But, despite thin air and incredibly cold nights, the ‘bathrooms’ of the cute vicuñas quickly become spreading oases of vegetation, insect, bird and animal life.

However the Study concludes that their defecation campaign is not enough to counter Climate Chaos.
