Is there a Mass Extinction of living species upcoming?
Mass extinctions: number sixPalaeontologists recognize five major extinction events from the fossil record, with the most recent, the Cretaceous mass extinction, ending some 65 million years ago.Given the many species known to have disappeared in the past few thousand years, some biologists suggest that a sixth such event is now under way.Barnosky et al. set out to review the evidence for that claim, and conclude that the recent loss of species is dramatic and serious, but not yet in the mass extinction category - usually defined as a loss of at least 75% of Earth's species in a geologically short time frame.But that said, there are clear indications that the loss of species now classed as 'critically endangered' would soon propel the world into its sixth mass extinction.
How many scientists believe extinction is real?
Essentially all of them. The fossil record indicates that many species that existed in the past are no longer alive. Regrettably some species that were being monitored in recent decades have disappeared and numerous species that are also being watched at the present are in sharp decline.
Did evolution occur?
No. it is still and always occurring. it won't stop, it always happens. it is not some static thing that happened in the past tense. Species continue to adapt to their surroundings, or be naturally selected into extinction.
Is it true that extinctions only occur in the past?
Every single extinction has happened in the past. If an extinction is happening this instant we will not know about it until it is in the past. As and when any future extinctions happen we will not know about it until it is in the past.

Endangered species are those species which are in the brink of extinction. Many wild animals and plants are currently endangered.

It is important to take steps to protect these species and their habitats to ensure their survival.
