| | Habitat (ecology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Habitat (from the Latin for "it inhabits") is the place where a particular species lives and grows. |  | | Habitat destruction is a major factor in causing a species population to decrease, eventually leading to its being endangered, or even to its extinction. |  | | Thus, it is not just a species population that has a habitat, but an assemblage of many species, living together in the same place that essentially share a habitat. |
