Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the tropical Pacific, like the western coast of central and south America, the surface of the sea is cooler than normal and that results in reduced rainfall, drought and increased fires. This definitely brings about a negative effect on wildlife, as there is less water and food available.

However, in South East Asia, a higher than normal rainfall is commonly experienced, which is good for agriculture.
