Global warming could make humans shorter, warn scientists who claim to have found evidence that it caused the world’s first horses to shrunk nearly 50 million years ago.
In fact, a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the Earth heating up and the size of mammals—horses.
The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution(进化) of horses from their earliest appearance 56 million years ago.
“As temperatures went up, their size went down, and vice versa; at one point they were as small as a house cat,” said Dr Jonathan Bloch, curator (馆长) of the Florida Museum of Natural History.
The scientists say that the current warming could have the same effect on mammals—and could even make humans smaller.
“Horses started out small, about the size of a small dog like a miniature schnauzer (迷你型雪纳瑞犬). What’s surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then dramatically increased in size, and that exactly corresponds(与……一致) to the global warming event, followed by cooling.”
“It had been known that mammals were small during that time and that it was warm, but we hadn’t understood that temperature specifically was driving the evolution of body size,” Dr Bloch said in the Science journal.
