Answer 1

Why are there so many endangered animals?

Species become endangered for two main reasons:

loss of habitat and loss of genetic variation. A loss of habitat can happen naturally. ... Human activity can also contribute to a loss of habitat. Development for housing, industry, and agriculture reduces the habitat of native organisms.

Answer:

The current extinction is most likely the result of human activity, especially over the past century. Scientists estimate that 100 to 10,000 species — from microscopic organisms to large plants and animals — go extinct each year. This is 100 to 1,000 times faster than historic extinction rates.
