Question

Damage of crops by bird and mammals significantly higher in field closer to forest patches?

Answer 1

As the number of animals are higher in forest so they tend to come to those farms and crops and destroy the fields 

Answer 2

According to the question;

"Damage of crops by bird and mammals significantly higher in field closer to forest patches."

This statement is completely true.

Due to the heavy modernization we are cutting and destroying the forest vegetations for expanding our livable territory.

This destruction causes the lack of food of wild animals and birds living in the forests.That's why they attack our fields to collect food items.
