Climate change will decrease the range size of snake species under negligible protection in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest hotspot
Reptiles are highly susceptible to climate change, responding negatively to thermal and
rainfall alterations mainly in relation to their reproductive processes. Based on that, we …
