SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGH: Siberian volcanoes caused Earth’s LARGEST mass extinction EVER
EARTH’S most devastating extinction was triggered by Siberian volcanic eruptions 250 million years ago, scientists claim.
Hardly any species survived the Great Permian Extinction, known as the “Great Dying”.
The event wiped out more than 95 per cent of marine life and 70 per cent of land animals.
Catastrophic environmental changes also resulted from the period.
Scientists at New York University (NYU) have now discovered new evidence to show it was caused by massive volcanic eruptions.
