In the Gulf of Mexico , water temperatures have risen more than 3 degrees Fahrenheit ( more than 1.5 degrees Celsius) due to climate change.
Baby bull sharks have been found in the Alabama River , 75 miles north of the ocean, and up the Mississippi River as far as Illinois .
In Texas , young bull shark numbers have been increasing in estuaries like Galveston Bay and Sabine Lake .
The rise in bull sharks may affect other fish species, including bull shark prey like mullets, drums, herrings and catfish.
More bull sharks could eventually mean fewer of the fish that humans rely on.
It’s clear that climate change is altering coastal ecosystems, says James Marcus Drymon and Lindsay Mullins .
