A fact from Lists of organisms by population appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 7 November 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Russia has the largest number of brown bears, believed to exceed 100,000, while estimates in the U.S. are around 33,000, Canada 25,000, and Europe (excluding Russia) 14,000?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2012/November.

Number of fish

I think the estimate 3.5 trillion fish is too low, because the number of fish caught for food alone is between 1 and 3 trillion (http://fishcount.org.uk/fish-count-estimates/study-to-estimate-the-global-annual-numbers-of-fish-caught). In an article of mine (http://utilitarian-essays.com/one-trillion-fish.html), I estimate the oceanic population as ~13 trillion, and I think this is relatively conservative. -Brian Tomasik 05:58, 24 November 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian Tomasik (talk • contribs) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.26.35.9 (talk) 16:35, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
