minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink24•5 months agoIs that 20% of the number of species of mammals, or 20% of the number of individual mammals?
minus-square@Spyrolink10•5 months agoIt has to be the former. I would be shocked if bats even outnumbered humans and rodents combined.

I need an answer on this.
1400 species, about 20% of all mammals. So the former.
Also, rodents make up about 40% of all species of mammals.
Also, squirrels make up 60% of all rodents… that I love.
