>> I mean, you spout so much bullshit, nothing you post can be taken at face value. So, fucktard, what is your source? Which you have as of yet failed to source.

No, I'm pleased to accommodate you since you are so consistent in citing YOUR sources:
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) documents 338 vertebrate species as extinct since 1500, with an additional 279 listed as "extinct in the wild" or "possibly extinct," totaling 617 species. Most of these extinctions occurred after 1900, suggesting a significant portion happened in the last century.
As you can see, basically what I told you. And there are plenty more that will confirm it. The numbers are in the 100s regardless of the time frame chosen.

>> And no, the past 100 years is not the only relevant period.

The important point is that the longer ago an extinction occurs, the more likely it is to have been indeterminate. So, there are not precise figures.

The last 100 years is relevant not only because the data is more reliable, but because you can't blame anything older on increasing CO2 resulting from modern "science".

What you really need is some understanding of science. Maybe this guy can help you:
