One of the most common and widespread threat to wildlife is habitat loss. In a nutshell: humans grow and expand and develop, forcing animals out of their natural homes. This is horrible for the ecosystem and of course, for the wildlife. I won't rant too much about this subject, but I would like to share with you a link of info-graphics depicting the catastrophic effects of habitat loss.
Keep in mind those graphics were for only 8 animal species. More than one and a half million animal species call this planet home, so just let that soak in. It's amazing how much damage we can do to other inhabitants of our planet, and frankly, it makes me ashamed to be human.
Again, thanks for reading, and keep checking back!
