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.
