Yes, it is estimated that about 99.5 percent of all species that have ever existed on Earth are now extinct. This figure reflects the natural processes of evolution and extinction over millions of years, including mass extinction events that have wiped out large numbers of species. Only a small fraction of species that have existed are still present today, highlighting the dynamic nature of life on Earth.
False. Animals were made the same day as man!!!!! The above is true if you believe exclusively in creationism. Science says that all the species of animals that live on earth today make up less than one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of all the animals that have ever existed. So to answer your question: yes, many species became extinct before mankind altered the earth.
The theory you're referring to is evolution, which suggests that species can change over time through a process of natural selection and genetic variation. This means that the diversity of life we see today could have descended from common ancestors that existed in the past.
There are estimated to be around 8.7 million unique species currently alive on Earth today.
The theory of Common Descentbelievesthat all species on earth have a common ancestor.

3% of earth's surface is covered by rainforest's.
There are estimated to be around 300,000 species of angiosperms (flowering plants) in the world today. They make up the majority of all plant species on Earth.
humans --------------------------------------- There are far more insects than there are humans!
There are estimated to be around 8.7 million species on Earth today, although the actual number could be much higher due to many species still being undiscovered, particularly in less-explored regions like the deep ocean or tropical rainforests.
The first continent on Earth is believed to be Pangaea, which existed around 335 million years ago. It was a supercontinent that later broke apart into the continents we have today.
