@veganpizza69 Learned a new statistic today ... Livestock make up 62% of the world's mammal biomass; humans account for 34%; and wild mammals are just 4%. Humans have transformed the mammal kingdom.15 Dec 2022

@RaphMikey

Sure, and here are some related charts for a bigger picture. Domesticated birds also dominate the biomass of birds.

" This is also true for wild and domesticated birds, for which the biomass of domesticated poultry (≈0.005 Gt C, dominated by chickens) is about threefold higher than that of wild birds (≈0.002 Gt C; SI Appendix, Table S12). In fact, humans and livestock outweigh all vertebrates combined, with the exception of fish."

@veganpizza69 That’s a great site. Going to have a good read of their articles.
