On a 'local' level, 'probably' not - but when there's no place to creep/run/fly to for *literal miles* because the trees have been cut and erosion has removed ground cover - who knows ? Because researchers *in the field* keep reminding us that only a percentage of the total biomass *of the globe* has been *classified*, yet people clear-cut places where no one has yet ventured to *begin* studying let alone measure 'what's left' . . .
