The permafrost in Siberia is gradually melting. What did the scientists find here?

Many people have a deep understanding that this summer is unusually hot, especially in North America, where many areas have reached 40 degrees. The continuous high temperature weather has caused more than 700 deaths, posing a serious "threat" to the safety of human life and property.

In fact, this is also an end to the "self-eating consequences" of mankind, because since the industrial revolution hundreds of years ago, a large amount of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases have been discharged to the earth, causing the greenhouse effect. Many people think that the greenhouse effect and climate warming have little and far-reaching influence on us, but now we should deeply understand how wrong and naive this statement is.

Climate warming has gradually melted the permafrost in Siberia, and many prehistoric creatures have reappeared in public view, but this may be the beginning of human "disaster".

Siberian permafrost melts, and prehistoric animals such as mammoths are amazing! 1, mammoth

In Yakutsk, Russia, a paleontologist discovered a furry creature, which is brown and has curled up into a ball. From the outside, it seems to be asleep. But in fact, it does not belong to the creatures on the earth now. At first, biologists thought it might be the remains of wolves or bears, but it was not similar. It died thousands of years ago, so biologists are still unable to determine the exact age of its life.

There are many remains of other creatures in Siberian permafrost, and biologists are committed to studying these remains. Due to the high temperature, 95% of the permafrost in Siberia is gradually melting, which attracts many scientists to study. After research, scientists believe that mammoths used to live mainly in Yakutsk, and most of them lived in the Ice Age.

2. Other animals

Besides mammoths, scientists and research teams have also found many other animals trapped in permafrost in Kuske. These include the head of a coyote and the cubs of a cave lion. In addition to these, there is also a brown-haired animal whose age cannot be determined, which is still a mystery to human beings at present.

Although it is a good thing for biologists and scientists to find animal carcasses in permafrost, it is very terrible for human beings. Because in the world, the area of permafrost is about twice that of the United States. When the climate warms, carbon dioxide emissions will also increase, which will lead to the melting of Arctic glaciers.

When the permafrost in Siberia gradually melts, many microorganisms will appear, which can decompose the organic matter in the permafrost and release carbon dioxide or methane. This will aggravate the greenhouse effect on the earth, and the high temperature will be more serious.

In addition, animal remains have been found under the permafrost in Siberia. Scientists have also found prehistoric viruses and bacteria that are "waking up" under the glaciers in the Arctic. Humans have no resistance to these bacteria and viruses. If they enter animals and creatures with the ocean, it will do great harm to the creatures on earth.
