Question

Which of the following is/are mainly responsible for the extinction of wildlife?

• A. Hunting of wild animals
• B. Destruction of habitats
• C. Pollution of air and water
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above

Wild animals are hunted for flesh, fur and also for ivory.
Habitat destruction is the process by which a natural habitat is rendered unable to support the species present. In this process, the organisms that previously used the site are displaced or destroyed.
Human activity leads to the pollution of air and water which in turn, kills many animals.
So all of the above lead to a reduction in biodiversity.
