Our understanding of the decline that human overpopulation is causing in animal species across our planet is nothing new. On the land, in the air and beneath the water, species large and small have long been struggling to adapt and survive as a growing human population continues to destroy animal habitats and ecosystems.
Mankind’s longstanding arrogance towards its fellow inhabitants of earth shows little sign of softening (in the majority at least), as an increasing global population demands ever greater food supplies, living space, comfort and entertainment. In recent years, however, the warnings of scientists and environmentalists have become far more urgent and we now face, not just the decline of animal species, but what is being referred to as the sixth mass extinction of wildlife.
