Humans have contributed to the extinction of animals and plants by over hunting/over harvesting since the beginning of man. Sometimes the over hunting that man did also contributed to the extinction of plants because the animal that man hunted was required by the plant or it's seed to reproduce.

∙ 11y agoHumans have impacted the world by pollution and other damaging products. We cut down trees which takes the species homes away, causing them to migrate and adapt to new surroundings. With pollution it harms/kills them.

Poachers- for example tigers and elephants are killed for their skin and tusks, even though this is illegal it does happen.
Climate- for example polar bears are becoming extinct and sadly it's our fault. Driving cars are hurting the ozone which is destroying the temperatures where polar bears live.
Habitats- animals like eagles are becominge extinct because lumber companies are cutting down trees, which takes away their home.
Hope this helps!
