Human impacts on the rates of recent, present, and future bird extinctions.
TL;DR: The statement that approximately 1.3% of the approximately 10,000 presently known bird species have become extinct since A.D. 1500 is qualified and a 21st century rate of approximately 1,000 E/MSY is predicted, which is higher than the benchmark rate before human impacts but is a serious underestimate.
