In some areas, the WWF’s Living Planet report noted that wildlife populations had fallen by up to 95%. The Amazon rainforest is particularly vulnerable.

The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) published its latest Living Planet report on Thursday, showing that wild populations of animal species have plunged over 70% since 1970.

In some highly biodiverse areas, such as Latin America and the Caribbean, that number is closer to 95%.

“The picture we are painting is incredibly concerning,” Kirsten Schuijt, director general of WWF International, told a press conference.
