MILLIONS of years ago when the atmosphere of the earth was more oxygen rich, insects were larger because more O2 could permiate their circulatory system free bodies.
I call BS on this too.

Didn’t realize shrinkage was a “warming” phenomenon.

Global Warming ? Thought we were worried about Climate Change ? Extreme warmth is just as bad as extreme cold to many organisms. Don't these scientists know they can play both sides of the temperature coin for their welfare payments ? Sloppy work.

It’s not BS... It’s magic! Just look at all the stuff global warming can do. About the only thing it can’t do is make it though a real scientific review by objective scientists.

its the most commonly asked for saltwater fish after the common orange clown (nemo)
