Answer: Sudden loss of habitat
Explanation:
Endangered species are animal or plant species that are in danger of going extinct.
This usually results from them suddenly losing their habitat and thus being exposed to unfamiliar conditions or threats that could end their existence. For instance, elephants losing their forest habitats in India and thus encroaching on farmland only to get shot for damaging farms.
Answer;
This is because most likely some time a ago there use to be Ammonites living there and as they died there, they got fossilized.
Explanation;
-Fossils of a marine animal called Ammonite are found in large numbers in the Kali Gandaki river in Nepal. Ammonites were sea animals having shells - either straight or coiled. When the Tethys sea disappeared, they were caught in the shale layers of clay and transformed into fossils. This is one of the proofs that the Himalayas were indeed once under water.
