Animals dig, this loosend the soil & breaks apart rocks.

What are three agents or causes of mechanical weathering?
The agents of weathering include water, wind, sun, ice, frost, and plants and animals. All these different agents work on rocks and make changes to them over years.
the primary agents of weathering are water, ice, and gases in the atmosphere
Wind and water are agents of erosion
There are so many agents of chemical weathering. The two main agents that cause chemical weathering are acid rain and carbon dioxide.
not just glaiciers, but all ice, (including glaiciers) are agents of weathering.
Water, Acids , and Air are all agents of chemical weathering
water,acids and air are all agents of chemical weathering
Plants and animals and ice and frost
Basically, deforestation can affect weathering in a negative way as it harms the ecosystem and the habitats of animals. Trees now offer no protection from winds, frosts and rain. All these are weathering agents.
Natural agents of physical weathering: Rain, sand (driven by the wind), sunlight, the freeze/thaw cycle. Man-made agents of physical weathering: Acid rain.
