Floods cause extensive damage to

Excess of rainfall continues to add more and more water to rivers, lakes and ponds thus leading to a rise in in their level of water. When the water level rises, the water flows onto the land thus causing floods. The land, property, crop fields everything gets immersed thereby bringing great damage to them. Animals too get carried away with the risen water level. They get trapped in the water and are unable to find a way out, thus they remain trapped and often die when the flood water withdraws.
