According to a study by a conservation group representing 11 tribal nations in the Great Lakes region, the firefly (waawaatesi in the Ojibwe language) will have significantly worse outcomes over the next 50 years if temperatures increase as much as some models suggest. By contrast, the white-tailed deer (waawaashkeshi in Ojibwe) should be able to withstand the highest predicted warming without much harm and likely won't require the conservation efforts that the firefly will.
