Are you loving the sixth mass extinction?
Note this is the greatest event in the last 65 million years and the first of its kind in the last 4.6 billion years.
The Sixth Mass Extinction
the only one done on PURPOSE
Organized Bit
Note that the global extermination program has kiecked into high gear as the following are currently going extinct:
monarch butterflies
king snakes
quail
sea gulls
magpies
frogs, toads, worms etc
and many others.
Why and How Environmental Groups Play to Lose
Ok,. these environmental groups lose because they do not care, are fractious, respond too late, use resources when a species is on the brink of extintion, and ignore populations when they are still large but in decline. Furthermore they look at each species in isolation rather than at large assemblages of species. "IIn January 2019, the Xerces Society released a call to action for addressing significant declines in the western monarch population. "
Probably Wasted Bit for the Pagans
You may be interested in this. Scroll down to see the bit about the monarchs.
The reason you may be interested is that at a meeting of the group in the summer a few years ago some man remarked about a butterfly as being emblematic of someone who had passed away. As butterflies as a whole are currently being exterminated permanently the world over, the opportunity to have the experience that was had then is coming to an end about now.

How much do u love extinction? Edit
Seagulls were also common 30 years ago in the sacrameto, ca area. Now they are absolutely gone from the Sacramento area. The same can be said for magpies, robins, and valley jays. Quail were common in Arden Oaks 40 years ago and now are almost entirely gone including from the American River bike trail. Snakes, frogs, toads, praying manteses, snails, worms, pill bugs, and nearly all insects are nearly gone with the exception of ants. Crows flew by the 1000's in the mid 70's through early 80';s but now it is rare to see more than 7 or so. Some spider offspring were so common a couple generations ago that the air used to be thick with their strands. The last time that happened was in 76 or so.
Sea gulls are going extinct as well.
Is The Seagull a protected species?
Seagulls are a Protected Species
Seagulls are migratory birds and, while they can be found throughout the country, many will nest in environmentally sensitive coastal and lakeside areas with fragile ecosystems. Damage to these nesting sites caused the seagull population to drop to dangerously low levels.Apr 1, 2019

How many birds went extinct in 2018?
Scientists announced that three bird species vanished from the Earth for good in 2018. While 2018 didn't see much wildlife extinction, the Earth is losing animal species at 1,000 to 10,000 times the natural rate.Jan 3, 2019

Magpies are nearly gone as they are critically endangered.
Magpies are also going extinct. These were common in the California central valley in the 70's also. The species is listed as “Critically Endangered” by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), but bird experts are warning that the situation may have worsened in recent months, amid fears that the rare Magpies may now be close to extinction in the wild, with no recent sightings reported.

Quail are going extinct. Quail are going extinct. What happened to the quail population?
The drastic decline in the quail population throughout the South has been a passionate concern of mine for many years. The tragic and drastic decline in quail and other field-bird populations is the result of the massive and widespread spraying of herbicides by agriculture and forestry industries.Nov 27, 2013

Geoffrey Harris What is the monarch butterfly population?
And with less than 30,000 insects in the state, the monarchs are right above the threshold of adults needed to sustain the population. Scientists fear the species will be extinct within 20 years, according to a study published in 2017 in the journal Biological Conservation.Jan 7, 2019

Yep. The west coast monarchs are currently moving from functional extinction to full extinction. Those over 40 or so now will be the last people ever to have seen living monarchs. "What is the monarch butterfly population?

"In California and across the West, much of the native milkweed and flowering plants have been eradicated on agricultural lands as a result of broad herbicide applications." Latest population count could spell doom for the monarch. Unless we act now.

King snakes are going extinct. We saw one in the yard of our place on Maplewood Lane about 40 years ago. The kingsnakes found in North America are not considered endangered, though the populations of some are decreasing, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species. The Todos Santos Island kingsnake is critically endangered, however.Mar 1, 2016
Earthworms are going extinct.
Two others, the Giant Gippsland Earthworm (Megascolides australis) and Oregon Giant Earthworm (Driloleirus macelfreshi) are considered to be endangered. The Giant Gippsland Earthworm is one of the largest species of earthworm in the world, growing up to 3m long.May 19, 2017

Are snails becoming extinct?
As is true for most currently endangered animals, humans are the root cause behind the population drop for hundreds of snail species. Whether from habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species, global warming or pollution, almost a thousand snail species are listed as endangered worldwide.

The extinction rate is now the highest it has been in the last 65 million years due entirely to people driving anmals extinct on purpose. Though it is currently at 1000 times the background rate, it is accelerating rapidly and soon will become one of the most rapid global extinctions ever during the last 4.5 billion years. "How many species go extinct every day?
Scientists estimate that 150-200 species of plant, insect, bird and mammal become extinct every 24 hours. This is nearly 1,000 times the “natural” or “background” rate and, say many biologists, is greater than anything the world has experienced since the vanishing of the dinosaurs nearly 65m years ago."
