Habitat degradation refers to the process through which a natural habitat becomes incapable of supporting its native species due to human activities or environmental changes. This decline in habitat quality can lead to a loss of biodiversity and disrupt ecological processes. Factors such as pollution, urban development, agriculture, and deforestation play significant roles in habitat degradation, negatively impacting wildlife and their ecosystems.
