When the natural climate changes due to global warming,it can surely affect seals.The majority of them live in the Antarctic region so as the ice is melting,their natural habitat can be seriously affected.These changes don't take place overnight.They can be the result of many years of additional temperatures in the area.The seals then have to find ways to adapt.
Seals depend on the cool air currents to bring plenty of food for them.When the temperatures get higher there is less and less food and the seal population starts to shrink.Mothers aren't healthy enough to feed their babies.Many of them end up abandoned as the mothers have to leave to find their own source of food.
The fact that their desire to produce young can be changed by the warmer temperatures is frightening too.It is also believed that the warmer temperatures can allow different diseases and viruses to attack the seals.This is a huge concern as they can rapidly wipe out huge numbers of seals out there.
However,these changes in climate and temperature aren't all bad for other species of seals.Scientists have found that those living in warmer climates are producing more young due to the changes.Research also shows that the females are moving further to find food and water.When they are out of the reach of the governing males,they are more willing to accept the moves of other males in the group.
This is good news too because it means that there will be more selection in the gene pool（基因库）for future generations.It can help the seals as a species adapt to change in their natural environment more easily.
The climate change problem for seals is directly linked to humans.When we take action to change what we let out into the environment,we will make positive changes for the seals.However,it is going to take a very long time to reverse （彻底改变）the effects of what has already been done.
