If the rainforests are getting cut down does it affect animals?
The Amazon rainforest produced 20% of the entire world's oxygen, as it is rich in plants. When it's being destroyed, the oxygen levels will affect us. 25% of all pharmaceutical drugs come from the plants in the rainforest. 99% of the rainforest has yet to been tested. Scientists know of potential ingredients that can be found in the rain forests that can create drugs to treat cancer, Alzheimer's, AIDS, and many others. Unfortunately, scientists also believe that all rain forests, including the Amazon, will be destroyed within the next 40 years (every second 1.5 acres are burned, logged, and/or cleared away.). So very likely, by the time we can actually find a cure for cancer or AIDs, the Amazon rainforest will be destroyed, because many landowners and timber harvesters believe the rainforest to be only as valuable as the resource inside of it. Cutting down any forest affects humans, and the natural cycles of all living things. At some point in the future we as humans may upset the natural balance of the Earth, and cutting down forests may be taking us closer to upsetting that balance.
