1.Deforestation and Habitat fragmentation

Cutting down trees, removal of forests to convert them into farmlands or urbanisation or ranches. Reducing forests into relatively small, isolated patches. Some specialized species cannot adjust to climate and environmental changes due to the habitat loss, they can live only under certain environment else they are prone to diseases.

2.Hunting and poaching

It is a sport which involves killing wild animals, people do it for pleasure but they are bringing lot of species to extinction. Hunting heavily contributed to the endangerment, extirpation of many animals.

3.Pollution

Pollution has already shown adverse affect on humans, even wildlife suffers from pollution sometimes pollution can even kill some species. Air pollution, water pollution, plenty of chemicals are released by industries which is polluting water, air and environment.
