Mass Extinctions | The Closest Life Has Come to Annihilation | The Permian Period

Mass Extinctions have been pivotal periods in Earth's history where many species have been wiped out in a relatively short span of time. These have many causes, from oxygen levels to volcanic activity to meteors. Today we will be focussing on the Permian Period, a fascinating time for tetrapod evolution. We will explore the worst mass extinction in the Earth's history, along with several smaller ones that came before. This is part 5 of a series on mass extinctions throughout history.
