Study Notes

Habitat Loss

Many habitats around the world are threatened, which also threatens the living things that rely on them.
Habitat loss can cause other problems, such as flooding and climate change.

Deforestation

Deforestation is the destruction of forests, often for timber, roads, houses, grazing cattle, or growing crops.
The UK used to be covered in forests, but most are now gone.
The Amazon Rainforest in South America is also disappearing, threatening the many precious animals and plants that live there, such as jaguars, harpy eagles, insects, and snakes.

Wetlands

Wetlands are areas where the land is covered by water, including marshes, ponds, and floodplains.
They are important habitats that help fight global warming and are home to important species.
Wetlands are being destroyed by pollution and are being drained to build on.

Coral Reefs

Coral reefs are ancient habitats under the sea, and coral is a living thing.
Lots of fish and other sea creatures live among the coral, and plants can grow there too.
Coral reefs are in danger, just like many other habitats around the world.
