* Plastic ingestion: Many animals, especially marine animals like sea turtles, seabirds, and whales, mistake plastic for food. This can cause them to choke, starve, or suffer from internal injuries.
* Habitat destruction: Litter can pollute natural habitats, making it difficult for animals to find food, shelter, or nesting sites.
* Entanglement: Animals can get tangled in plastic bags, fishing lines, and other litter, which can injure or kill them.
So, while we can't pinpoint one specific animal, littering contributes to the extinction risk of many species.
Instead of saying "this animal will go extinct," it's more accurate to say "littering harms animals and contributes to the decline of many species."
Let's be mindful of our impact on the environment and keep our planet clean for all living creatures!
