35、ex life on this planet today a huge number. But add up all of the complex species that ever lived and some biologists think the grand total would be about five billion. The estimate leads to an astonishing conclusion: a staggering 99% of species are not around any more. They have been driven to exti

36、nction.More species are joining the ranks of the extinct every year. Many scientists believe we are living through an episode of remarkably rapid extinction, on a scale that has been seen only five times in the last half a billion years.They call this current episode the sixth mass extinction a larg

37、e, global decline in a wide variety of species over a relatively short period of time. And they tend to agree that humans are the main cause.Over-hunting, overfishing, and human-driven habitat loss are pushing many species to the brink. In fact, we have changed the planet so much that some geologist

38、s are now suggesting that we have entered a new phase in Earths history; an epoch they call the Anthropocene . By 2100, it is expected that humans will have caused the extinction of up to half of the worlds current species.Because we are living through this extinction, it is relatively easy for us t

39、o study the driving forces behind it. But how do we determine what caused other mass die-offs that happened long ago? To do so we have to look at what archaeologists, palaeontologists, geologists and other scientists have concluded from the evidence they have gathered.The trouble is, those scientist

40、s do not always agree with one anothereven about the mostrecent extinction event. As well as the five-or six- mass extinctions, there have also been many smaller extinctions.One of these mini extinction events happened towards the end of the Pleistocene, a few tens of thousands of years ago. It is s

48、ly improved their knowledge of natural history. However, a lot of information is still of the speculation, and scientists can still only make educated guesses at certain things.One subject that they guess about is why some 400 million years ago, animals in the sea developed limbs （肢）that allowed the

Sea animals would have been forced into these pools by strong tides. Th

This is because th

Cambridge Universitys paleontologist Jennifer Clark, speaking to Nature magazine,
