Species-scape

This infographic, titled Species-scape, purports to show various species at sizes relative to the number of known species in that group. Insects, represented by the fly, is the largest (at about 900,000 known species). If you're wondering where we are, humans (and other mammals) are represented by the reindeer underneath the mushroom.

So there's more fly species than tree species? That's why I hate flies. They are secretly ruling this planet. They are what's causing global warming, if you think about it. That is, if you think very briefly about it.
