Answer 2

Animals in Africa are endangered for many reasons. Mainly poaching - the illegal hunting and slaying of animals- the classic example of this is the elephant, hunted for its tusks. Another reason is forest fires, which tear through the dry bush, killing lots of animals in its rampage. When the smaller animals die, then the next animals in the food chain die, and so on and so on. Other than that, there are the huge number of droughts which suck the land of any water and that can kill all of the animals off. There has also been a case of a certain disease - I'm not sure what it is called - that infested in the animals' stomachs and when they were found, and cut open, they were writhing with maggots. All in all, animals in Africa have a tough life.
