Solution

The correct option is A loss of habitat
The biggest threat to wildlife and habitat today is the break-up of large land holdings into smaller tracts. Wildlife populations are subject to many pressures including loss of open space from development, increased hunting pressure, the proliferation of potential predators (dogs, cats and other carnivores), and the introduction of exotic species, to name a few.
