Depending on your definition of "animals", there could be many thousands of times more animals on the planet. If you include insects, there are probably more ants in any typical square mile of random land than there are humans on the planet. Billions and Billons...

Fisher (1951), a British ornithologist, estimated there are more than 100

billion individual wild birds in the world.

There are 6-8 billion humans on earth.

Definitely more birds than humans.

Animals by a long shot. For example, it has been estimated that there are 1,000,000,000,000,000 Ants in the world, more than 100,000 times more Ants than people!
