- Earth has had more major mass extinctions than we realized

- How Many Animals Are There In The World? - WorldAtlas
This is just one of the reasons why it is difficult to estimate the exact number of species that inhabit the Earth How Many Species Exist on Earth? To date, researchers have been able to document around 1 2 million species in existence However, the total number of species that are in existence is estimated to be somewhere around 8 7 million

- Vertebrates on the brink as indicators of biological . . . - PNAS
During the more than 4 5 billion years of Earth’s history, there has never been a richness of life comparable to that which exists today () Although there have been five mass extinction episodes during the last 450 million years, each destroying 70 to 95% of the species of plants, animals, and microorganisms that existed earlier (2–4), life has recovered and multiplied extensively
- Tropical Deforestation - NASA Earth Observatory
Although tropical forests cover only about 7 percent of the Earth’s dry land, they probably harbor about half of all species on Earth Many species are so specialized to microhabitats within the forest that they can only be found in small areas Their specialization makes them vulnerable to extinction
