• Cascading extinctions as a hidden driver of insect decline (2020, background): “Although anthropogenic overexploitation is primarily seen as a problem for megafauna, it being estimated, for example, to be causing the decline of at least one-third of threatened birds and amphibians (Navjot et al., 2009), it is also impacting insect species.”
• Historical bird and terrestrial mammal extinction rates and causes (2012, unknown): “For example, Sodhi et al. (2009) projected that current extinction rates are 100–10,000 times background vs. the very modest rise we estimated of 0.89–7.7 times the background rate for continental mammals and 0.69–5.9 times background for continental birds.”
