A parrot’s beak is made up of keratin, and it is extra strong for cracking hard nuts and seeds. They also use their beak for climbing. Parrots might adapt to climate change by growing smaller, because a smaller body size retains less heat, and needs less water. With climate change the rains will slow considerably. Also, water is rising and the rainforest might be a swamp, forcing them to stand in water and dip their beak underwater to collect seeds. Bigger beaks to dip them in the water and collect seeds would help. They might also have a lighter color, because since trees are being cut down, there’s less cover to hide from prey. Since bright colors attract predators, they’re colors might be dimmed in the future. Droughts will cause trees to die and increase the dry leaf litter, increasing the risk of forest fires.
