I saw this infographic posted a few days ago and it’s a bit misleading. The percentages are based on biomass, not population. I also don’t remember what the original source is, and it looks like it got cropped off the one you posted here. If you remember the source, could you link it?

Oh I got it from here but I tracked it down with a Google search.
I can’t say if this is the original source but maybe. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/may/21/human-race-just-001-of-all-life-but-has-destroyed-over-80-of-wild-mammals-study
Biomass VS population makes some sense though. Having a million ants would be sure, lots, but having a million elephants would be WTF wholy shit!
