Grévy's zebra populations are estimated at less than 2,000 mature individuals, but they are stable. Mountain zebras number near 35,000 individuals and their population appears to be increasing. Plains zebra are estimated to number 150,000–250,000 with a decreasing population trend. Human intervention has fragmented zebra ranges and populations.

The intermediate levels are filled with omnivores that feed on more than one trophic level and cause energy to flow through several food pathways starting from a basal species. [14] In the simplest scheme, the first trophic level (level 1) is plants, then herbivores (level 2), and then carnivores (level 3).

When comparing vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore diet types, researchers found that food quality and diversity may have the biggest impact on the health and structure of the gut microbiome.
Habitat loss and human encroachment as well as climate change have been the primary cause of many species going into decline. Four species of carnivorans have gone extinct since the 1600s: Falkland Island wolf ( Dusicyon australis ) in 1876; the sea mink ( Neogale macrodon ) in 1894; the Japanese sea lion ( Zalophus japonicus ) in 1951 and the ...
