Rainbow sea slug found in Cornwall amid warming seas

Original: Rainbow sea slug find in Cornwall a reminder of climate change

A rainbow sea slug has been found in Cornwall, a colourful sea slug normally associated with warmer waters. The discovery is being framed as a sign of climate change, with warming seas allowing typically southern species to survive further north. Marine experts say such sightings point to shifting species distributions around the British coastline.

Why now: Rare, visually striking wildlife discoveries tied to warming seas attract wide attention and symbolise climate change.
