I have personally seen more numbers of all wildlife in the past few years than I've ever seen, and I have always lived in the same area. Even the coastal fishing is better this year after 20 years of decline. I'd like to know more detail of the data this article is using.

I'm not sure where you're based, but the US and Canada have done a lot the last few decades to help their wildlife recover. For example, the banningg of DDT allowing raptors to recover dramatically. Sadly we are not the world and countries such as China and India have not been so kind to their wildlife. Worldwide fisheries are also generally overfished and are near the point of collapse in many places.
