The Christmas Tree Worm (Spirobranchus giganteus) lives on coral and is distributed throughout the world's tropical oceans.  Global climate change can lead to ocean acidification which can lead to coral bleaching which would result in this animal - and many others - being homeless.  Photo by Richard Ling.
