Study: Marine animal extinction may have contributed to great dying event There may have been a sixth great extinction that occurred during the Permian period, just before the event known as the great dying 252 million years ago, according to findings presented at the Geological Society of America meeting in Canada.

Bond is pushing to have this event classified as a potential sixth mass extinction. newscientist/article/mg22429922.300-missing-disaster-led-to-alltime-worst-extinction.html#.VFEcPPnF_To
