Despite being mega-biodiverse, India faces substantial threats, chiefly from direct and indirect human activity causing habitat loss and fragmentation via agriculture, extraction (mining, fishing, logging) and development.

Specific drivers include habitat loss and fragmentation (destruction of natural habitat for settlement/agriculture/mining/industry, illustrated by the shrinking Amazon and Tamil Nadu's Kodaikanal/Nilgiri hills, and by the sparrow's decline), over-exploitation (Dodo, passenger pige …
