Australian settlement had a profound impact on native animals, primarily through habitat destruction, introduction of non-native species, and hunting. Land clearing for agriculture and urban development led to significant loss of habitats, putting many species at risk. Additionally, introduced animals like rabbits and foxes competed with native wildlife for resources and preyed on native species, contributing to declines in populations. Overall, these changes have resulted in increased extinction rates and altered ecosystems across Australia.
