hello aspirant ...

Habitat is the home of animals.Forest is the habitat of animals They live in their habitat and they can search for food and give birth to their babies in their habitat.

All the birds,animals,plants and trees live with proper cooperation and peaceful harmony with other animals without disturbing anyone.

But when man enters their world,the man stars habitat destruction fir example deforestation,killing of animals and birds.

All this kind of habitat destruction can eventually lead to a danger to global biodiversity.Because deforestation lead to water crisis and draught.Many endemic organisms have very specific requirements for their survival that can only be found within a certain ecosystem, resulting in their extinction. Extinction may also take place very long after the destruction of habitat, a phenomenon known as extinction debt. Habitat destruction can also decrease the range of certain organism populations. This can result in the reduction of genetic diversity and perhaps the production of infertile youths, as these organisms would have a higher possibility of mating with related organisms within their population, or different species.

hope it helps !
