Pollution from man made resources can cause a significant amount of biodiversity loss: for example, fumes from car exhausts can pollute the atmosphere and air surrounding major cities, resulting in birds either dying or relocating to another area because of this. Water pollution such as acid rain, litter and waste pored into reservoir's, sea's or canals can poison the fish and kill other animals that live in the water.
Ground pollution can be known as ground destruction where landscapes where animals live are destroyed with industrialisation and new buildings, leaving the animals with nowhere to live because of the destruction of their habitats.

∙ 11y agoPollution destroys some of our existing species. These species evolved over millions of years and some of them went through diverse periods environmentally and can suffer through such periods. Their genetic pool must sustain our needs through whatever the future brings: warming, cooling, atmosphere changes, whatever. When pollution destroys some of these species our genetic reserve pool is reduced as is our ability to manage future change, whatever it might be. To the extent that we can reduce pollution and preserve our pool of species, doing this maximizes our future ability to handle change.

What types of pollution affect animals?
Pollution affects us all. Humans are also animals. But in reference to your question any type of modification to an environment has an effect on the animal population. Pollution, be it air pollution, water pollution (even the level of fertilizer from farms can be pollution in water) all has an effect on the animals that are primary stakeholders in the area being polluted.
