Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is recognized as one of the most pressing global challenges of the 21st century, with profound implications for the biodiversity and ecosystems of the planet. In particular, wildlife populations are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of changing climatic conditions, which can disrupt habitats, alter species distributions, and affect population dynamics. This research project focuses on investigating the specific effects of climate change on a local species, aiming to provide valuable insights into the potential consequences for wildlife populations in a changing environment. The study begins with a comprehensive introduction that outlines the background of the research, presents the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and structure of the research, as well as defining key terms to ensure clarity and understanding. The literature review in Chapter Two critically examines existing research on the impacts of climate change on wildlife populations, highlighting key findings, trends, and gaps in knowledge to provide a solid foundation for the subsequent analysis. Chapter Three details the research methodology, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and analytical tools employed in the study. The methodology aims to ensure the robustness and reliability of the research findings, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative approaches to capture the complexity of the interactions between climate change and wildlife populations. In Chapter Four, the discussion of findings presents a detailed analysis of the research results, exploring the specific impacts of climate change on the selected local species. The chapter covers key aspects such as changes in habitat suitability, shifts in species distributions, population dynamics, and potential adaptation strategies employed by the wildlife population to cope with changing environmental conditions. Finally, Chapter Five offers a comprehensive conclusion and summary of the research project, drawing together the key findings, implications, and recommendations derived from the study. The conclusion highlights the significance of the research in advancing our understanding of the impacts of climate change on wildlife populations, emphasizing the urgent need for conservation efforts and adaptive management strategies to safeguard biodiversity in a rapidly changing world. Overall, this research contributes valuable insights into the complex interactions between climate change and wildlife populations, underscoring the importance of proactive measures to mitigate the adverse effects of environmental change on biodiversity. By focusing on a local species as a case study, this project offers practical implications for conservation and management strategies aimed at preserving the rich diversity of wildlife in the face of a changing climate.
