New data: The Living Planet Index (LPI) tracks the average relative change in the size of 34,836 monitored populations of 5,495 wild vertebrate species. From 1970 to 2020, it indicates an average decline of these wildlife population sizes by 73%, according to the 2024 issue.
However, the LPI is very sensitive to sharp declines in small populations and to population sizes of zero. Zeros may also reflect some small populations that have not been detected, according to the authors. ...
