Is this even a possibility. I know some people say that other species will fill a gap, but is it possible to create too many gaps and/or gaps that are too big to fill?

No body truly knows when the true complete collapse would happen each extinstion can be compensated by another breed.
Just in the insect world are 920,000 "Known
species of insects and each division has countless numbers,
So just in the insect world different ones are more than any zoo on earth could show for exhibit.
Animal are just as complex over 15,000 and the comprise of countless know and unknown divisions. Just the fish of the oceans only a portion of them is discovered

5000 in line with year is probable low by utilising a element of ten. The UN estimate final year placed it at approximately 3 in line with hour, extra advantageous than any mass extinction on checklist, yet i've got seen estimates as low as 3000/year. The Bush administration has made it bureaucratically impossible to get a species declared endangered, much less get precise information. people are on the record of direction, with a inhabitants that outgrew the nutrition grant 3 many years in the past. Estimates as modern as 2005 point out that 60% of ecosystems have been degraded by utilising human exploitation to the factor the place they not can income people. the present explosion of recent species being got here upon and species concept extinct being rediscovered shows displacement of finished populations on a enormous scale. Beside polar bears, we've the great squid, the orangutang and a great type of different important species fleeing for his or her lives, without the place to bypass. to heavily substitute this photograph might require a ny undertaking scale attempt. regrettably, far too many human beings see the animals and vegetation sharing this planet with us as opposition, nutrition, or a nuisance.

Hundreds of thousands. Maybe more. many, many thousands of species came and went naturally long before man was a significant player on earth. Man may be next. Nature has no conscience and kills at random with no regard to suffering.
