All animals depend on their habitat. When a forest is cleared, they no longer have a place to live or, in most cases, a supply of food. Deforestation kills thousands upon thousands if not millions of animals yearly because they don't have what they need to survive. This may not make any difference for species that are already extinct, but for those that are endangered, deforestation needs to be stopped soon or there is a good chance that many endangered species will disappear.

Animals are becoming extinct due to deforestation because their homes, food and any other natural instinct they have is being taken from them and being replaced with roads and factories. Animals who lived in forests all their lives are not used to these new roads and are crossing them with oncoming traffic. It is very sad and I hope we can undo this horriable process. Sadly, its too late for the many extinct animals already..animals are very useful for nature so I request with my solemn gratitude to conserve our life because amimal is a part of our life
