Not likely. We're in the middle of a mass extinction event. 70% of all species have gone extinct since the industrial revolution.

Source? Could only find that populations have declined by 60-70%. Also there’s been 5 mass extinctions that we know of. There’s still life on earth. My point is just that nature will continue on without us. Life will adapt.
