Climate change influences nonhuman primate evolution in a number of ways. Fore example, in Central Asia, climates increased temperature by an insane amount. However, the issue among primates became that it was too dry of an environment and they were not able to survive. Primates among the northern hemisphere pretty much disappeared as a result of the increase in temperature of that period. Additionally, in South Asia and East Africa, tropical rain forests were being taken out and instead they would have grassy woodland areas, much less wet than the environment they replaced. These lines of primates that were being forced out of their homes and made to relocate eventually became virtually extinct because of the overall increase in temperature.
