Animal Planet Extinct or Alive
Sunday Morning episode on "Extinction"
Of all species that have existed on Earth, 99.9 percent are now extinct. Many of them perished in five cataclysmic events.
Scientists estimate that 150-200 species of plant, insect, bird and mammal become extinct every 24 hours. This is nearly 1,000 times the “natural” or “background” rate and, say many biologists, is greater than anything the world has experienced since the vanishing of the dinosaurs nearly 65m years ago.
There are 100 million different species co-existing with us on our planet - then between 10,000 and 100,000 species are becoming extinct each year.
