If that article above is true then we're not talking about one or two species over centuries but hundreds of them, I'm sure that would count as a local mass extinction.
Add in the lost species from every other country and we've got a global mass extinction on our hands and its the "greed is good" culture that's driving them to extinction.
As always we've got the climate and extinction deniers who are listened to more because they have the loudest voices, its not because they are right that they are so vocal its because they have more to lose than any one else, you only have to look at the Brazilian rain forest destruction to see this greed culture in full swing.
