The planet is meant to be shared by all species, humans, plants and animals But, with increasing number of people, an imbalance has been created leading to either animal species becoming extinct or endangered Deforestation, consumption of animal products, hunting and pollution are the main causes for habitats to vanish There are several methods such as sharing money among communities, awareness, that can help save animals

With rising population, we have slowly crept into the spaces of the animals Since one needs space to live, massive deforestation has taken place destroying the habitats of animals living in forest As a consequence, animals are forced to relocate and sometimes enter into the habitat of humans Another reason for such a

threatening scenario is the increased levels of pollution For instance, air pollution is causing death among the birds and water pollution among the fishes

The first step towards saving the animal species is conservation The animal habitat must be conserved and human entry must be restricted in those areas The next pragmatic step could be to give incentives to the communities living near the animal habitat If the tourism department gives a share of the earned money to people living near animal habitat, chances are that they will take ownership of animals and take extra care

Overall, the main reasons causing extinction are the various disturbances such as deforestation and hunting However, measures like incentives for the community and conservation can help protect the animals Question 33 In the first paragraph , which of the following is NOT the main cause for habitat disappearance ?

A.deforestation B.environment pollution C.overhunting D production Question 34 The word “massive” in paragraph could be replaced by _

Question 35 All of the following are true according to the passage EXCEPT A.Increasing number of people has created imbalance

B.Overpopulation has threatened the spaces of animals

C.Consumption of animal products contributes to destroying animal habitats D.Increasing levels of pollution has no relation to species extinction

Question 36 The word “they”in paragraph refers to

A.animals B.animals habitats

C.people near the habitat D.tourism departments Question 37 According to the passage, what is the primary step to save animal species?

A.We increase population B.We conserve animals
