Solution
Humans are responsible for animals becoming endangered. The reasons are:
1. We destroy their natural habitat for our uses like making dams, cutting of trees for making factories, houses, buildings, roads etc.
2. Due to oil spills, acids rain and water pollution, many species of fishes and birds are becoming endangered.
3. Many species of animals are hunted by poachers for their furs, teeth, skin and other valuable parts.
4. Due to migration by the loss of their natural habitat sometimes causes them a lot of diseases which leads to their death.
