well, for a first, not only are the rainforests getting destroyed but our human and animal species population is being destroyed. don't you think that that's a pretty fair call

The rainforest is being destroyed primarily through deforestation, which includes clearing land for agriculture, logging, mining, and infrastructure development. Climate change is also contributing to the destruction of rainforests through increased instances of wildfires and other extreme weather events. Additionally, unsustainable practices such as illegal logging and land grabbing are major factors in rainforest destruction.
There is no definitive number of animals in the rainforest as new species are constantly being discovered. Estimates suggest there might be millions of different species in the rainforest, with the Amazon rainforest alone home to thousands of mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects.
•The Amazon Rainforest is the world's greatest natural resource - the most powerful and bio-actively diverse natural phenomenon on the planet. Yet still it is being destroyed just like other rainforests around the world. •The problem and the solution to rainforest destruction are both economic. •Rainforests are being destroyed worldwide for the profits they yield - mostly harvesting unsustainable resources like timber, for cattle and agriculture, and for subsistence cropping by rainforest inhabitants.
The Amazon rainforest produced 20% of the entire world's oxygen, as it is rich in plants. When it's being destroyed, the oxygen levels will affect us. 25% of all pharmaceutical drugs come from the plants in the rainforest. 99% of the rainforest has yet to been tested. Scientists know of potential ingredients that can be found in the rain forests that can create drugs to treat cancer, Alzheimer's, AIDS, and many others. Unfortunately, scientists also believe that all rain forests, including the Amazon, will be destroyed within the next 40 years (every second 1.5 acres are burned, logged, and/or cleared away.). So very likely, by the time we can actually find a cure for cancer or AIDs, the Amazon rainforest will be destroyed, because many landowners and timber harvesters believe the rainforest to be only as valuable as the resource inside of it. Cutting down any forest affects humans, and the natural cycles of all living things. At some point in the future we as humans may upset the natural balance of the Earth, and cutting down forests may be taking us closer to upsetting that balance.
Rainforests are being destroyed primarily due to activities such as logging, agriculture (particularly soy production and palm oil plantations), mining, and urban expansion. These activities result in deforestation which has a significant impact on biodiversity, contributes to climate change, and threatens the livelihoods of indigenous communities.
Animals will loose their home and try to survive , most likely they wont.
Well obviously people are cutting it down to make residental areas and also many animals are being destroyed which protect the rainforest by bigger and more infuritaing animals.
They are destroyed for land use.

Rainforest is being destroyed due to logging and clearances for ranching, roads, agriculture and quarrying.

Talk to the minister of climate change
Well, there is no definite answer to your question because the rainforest is being destroyed everyday. but currently, around %18 of the Amazon had been destroyed.

loosing there homes from the rainforest being cut down
Yes. Kangaroo habitats are being destroyed. This is not affecting the population of all species of kangaroos, but it certainly affects the wallaby populations.
mabey not alot for a human being to live in the rainforest for animals yes (i think so?)
