The impact of artificial light on nocturnal species includes disruption of natural behaviors, such as foraging and mating. Nocturnal animals, like moths and frogs, rely on darkness for survival. Increased exposure to artificial light can lead to predation, decreased reproductive success, and altered habitat use. Studies indicate that prolonged light exposure can impact circadian rhythms, resulting in physiological changes detrimental to these species. Overall, the rise of artificial lighting not only affects individual species but can extend to entire ecosystems.
