Changes in the environment due to natural phenomena or human activities caused great impacts on living things. For instance, when humans clear the forest to build house, many animals lost their habitats and eventually die. This leads to their extinction.
In this lesson, pupils will find information about extinct and endangered animals. They will also search for the reasons certain animals are facing the threat of extinction as well as suggesting ways of prevention.
