Deforestation has several negative impacts on wildlife, including loss of habitat, disruption of ecosystems, reduction of biodiversity, and increased risk of extinction for many species. When forests are cleared for agriculture, logging, or urban development, animals lose their homes and food sources, leading to population declines and even local extinctions. Additionally, deforestation can fragment habitats, making it difficult for wildlife to find mates, food, and shelter. This disruption can have cascading effects on entire ecosystems and can ultimately lead to a loss of biodiversity.
