LONDON - Wildlife populations have fallen by more than two-thirds in less than 50 years, according to conservation group WWF.

Tanya Steele, chief executive of the animal charity, said wildlife is “in freefall” as we burn forests, over-fish seas and destroy wild areas.

She added that the “catastrophic decline” shows no sign of slowing, with the coronavirus pandemic showing how closely nature and humans are intertwined.
