A brief video detailing the destructive power a cyclone has and what exactly causes it. We'll dive deeper into uncovering a hurricane's workings and impacts on the ecosystem and environment as a whole.

And with these raging winds come inevitable damages. Not only are communities and homes affected. We must keep in mind that estuaries and coastal areas become targeted as well as rainforests. Here, many animals reside and become subject to habitat loss. Such is the unfortunate circumstance they are put in. Not only this, but their population numbers become drastically affected due to many dying either directly from propelled debris and high winds or succumbing to injuries after the ordeal. The extensive damages may be a task in itself to repair but sometimes a hurricane may contribute to an improved structural change to a habitat. In turn, species which find their way into these areas make new homes and may displace previous species. Thus, diversity in species takes place and creates a whole new ecosystem.
