∙ 10y agoNobody knows for sure, because we don't know how many different species of insects, birds, fish and animals there are.
There are also many other causes of extinction apart from deforestation (Loss of habitat, climate change, breaks in the food web, introduction of exotic species etc).
- Experts calculate that between 0.01 and 0.1% of all species will become extinct each year.
- If there are around 2 million different species on our planet (low estimate) - then that means between 200 and 2,000 extinctions occur every year.
- But if there are 100 million different species on our planet high estimate) - then between 10,000 and 100,000 species are becoming extinct each year.
