African gemsbok spreading across New Mexico

Original: African Gemsbok Spreading in New Mexico: How Far Could They Go Under Climate Change? | Newswise

African gemsbok, an antelope introduced to New Mexico decades ago, are expanding their range across the state, prompting researchers to model how far the species could spread as climate change alters habitats. The study raises questions about ecological impacts on native desert species and how wildlife managers should respond to a non-native animal thriving in a warming landscape.

Why now: New research links the spread of an introduced species to climate change, raising ecological concerns.
