Answer:

The correct option is B which is reduced wildlife habitat.

Explanation of the answer:

  • Deforestation leads to the loss of habitat for many animals specially living in
  • thick forests.
  • Wild animals like bears, leopards, wild cats, pandas and birds living on the trees can go extinct due to clear cutting. Because they will not have a natural living place which give them food and protection.
  • Other options are opposite to the consequence of clear cutting of forests. Hence B is the correct option.
