I can think of two reasons.

1. People have been cutting it down, therefore damaging the populations of animals that help it survive.

2. People have not been planting new trees in place of the old ones, therefore damaging the humans (who need products from trees), the animals (who need the habitat), and the rainforest size.

In other words, humans are the threat to the Amazon rainforest, and all other rainforests and and tree populated areas.
