The study focused on proportionality, not raw numbers of species at risk. There are many more predator species, so there are more vulnerable predators in total, but a larger share of herbivores are in trouble.
Atwood went into the study thinking that the predators were most at risk. However, she said the data — which included land and water species, but not fish because of inadequate information — pointed clearly at herbivores.Extinction causes — invasive species, climate change and habitat loss — hit herbivores harder than animals with other diets, Atwood said.Size may be part of the reason herbivores are more at risk, the ecologist said.
Man, they are massive!!! Amazing creatures.
Animals matter
It's just as hard for us rhino, it's just as hard for us! 😅 & it's expensive. That's why most vegetarians & vegans don't have much muscle & are fatter cause half the time, we turn to junk food. Saves hundreds & hundreds of dollars, easy to find & gives us a lot more protein.
President Trump reportedly clashed with GOP megadonor Sheldon Adelson during a phone call last week,
Even human beings, some are also threatened, endangered too and so many of the animals are better than few human beings that are living with devil in them 😪😪
Eat or be eaten...to the max.
And humans better not play it dumb by saying they don't care; every kind of species are playing a big role in our existence!
There are too many carnivores
China importing... china again.
Polluted waterways, poachers who believe certain body parts of animals heal or are magical, pesticides, Beevis & Butthead...
Grow some grass, FFS!
Cause there are too many people on this planet!!
I think if people could figure out a way to make these animals taste good, we could have farms of them which would breed them in large numbers and bring them back from endangerment.
Trim the horn and people will leave them allow. You need to call the Amazon man and ask him to help make a park for them. Amazon could use some good will.
They're on their own, for the foreseeable future. Humankind is busy trying to survive the conjunction of ignorance with cowardice.
How so? 🤔
😰💔
Conservatives are an endangered species- 🤣 Can we start a conservation program to save them?
Let's destroy the environment, animals, plants and everything....
God bless and save our animal kingdom.
Humans SUCK.

I guess you need to release the next virus because Covid clearly hasn't killed as many as you would have liked.
Actually makes a lot of sense. Some similarities to being completely reliant upon government. Those that hunt for what they eat tend to survive better and have a superior quality of life.
Doesn't make sense to worry about one part of the food chain. If the bottom of the food chain is extinct, the top will follow. We should worry about the climate and the over population of humans. Fix that and all is well.
Why is it so damn difficult for humans to leave other residents of planet Earth alone? Leaving something alone requires, literally...doing nothing.
Ugh! People did this! People suck!
Do not share their location to Jr. and Eric.
