Wabeari karibu na vijiji vya Italia wamebadilika kuwa wadogo na watulivu

EUREKALERT

Utafiti mpya unaonyesha kuwa wabeari wa kahawia wanaoishi karibu na vijiji vya Italia wamebadilika kizazi baada ya kizazi, wakawa na miili midogo na tabia tulivu zaidi kuliko wale wanaoishi mbali na binadamu. Wanasayansi wanasema mabadiliko haya yanaonyesha uwezo wa kuishi pamoja na binadamu katika mazingira yaliyokaliwa kwa muda mrefu.
