Do humans effect chameleons habitat

Echidnas are one of Australia's native animals which have been least affected by human habitation. As echidnas feed on termites and ants, there is always a ready supply of these insects. However, this does not mean there is no effect on the echidna's habitat.

Anywhere there is urban development is a threat to echidnas, whether this impact is by cars hitting the animals; echidnas being killed by domestic dogs; or building development such as bulldozers and other digging equipment.

One of the major effects on echidnas is caused by flooding, often a result of humans changing natural watercourses by their activities. Echidnas can swim, but they cannot survive floodwaters.
