The human race is just 0.01% of all life but has eradicated most other living things.
Yet since the dawn of civilization, humanity has caused the loss of 83% of all wild mammals and half of the plants, while livestock kept by humans abounds.
Only 10 percent of all large fish—both open ocean species including tuna, swordfish, marlin and the large groundfish such as cod, halibut, skates, and flounder—are left in the sea, according to research published in today's issue of the scientific journal Nature.
