Question 3(a)

Discuss the effects of deforestation on wild animals.

Answer

The effects of deforestation on wild animals are:

  1. Deforestation leads to the loss of shelter, food sources, and breeding grounds for wild animals.
  2. They are forced to migrate to urban areas in search of food and shelter leading to their clash with humans and exposing them to various threats.
  3. Deforestation often results in the death of many wild animals gradually leading to their extinction.
