Due to covid 19 pandemic,Both the positive and negative effects reflected on the environment and wildlife.

positive effects
Due to restriction in travel, deduction in journeys , hitting and killing of wildlife animals  by vehicles on roadside also reduced.

Shut down of large factories helps in improvement of air quality 

Reduced level of harmful gases due to decline in public transportation and public vehicles .

Reduction in fossil fuels.

Negative effects
Animals that rely on visitors for feeding or scavenging such as monkey are struggling for food and shelter

Due to lack of proper knowledge most people dump single use of covid 19 protective gear,face masks ,gloves,face shield in open places causes plastic pollution problem and wildlife death as animals can ingest plastic.

illegal wildlife marketing , wildlife hunting,illegal deforestation has also increased because who worked in protected areas and care for wildlife were struck in their homes.
