How does over-exploitation of beneficial species affect biodiversity ? Explain with the help of one example. |
|
Answer» Humans have always depended on nature for food and shelter, but when need turns to 'greed', it leads to over-exploitation of natural resources. Many species extinctions in the last 500 years (Steller's sea cow, passenger pigeon) were due to over-exploitation by humans. Presently, many marine fish populations around the world are over harvested, endangering the continued existence of some commercially important species. |
