How is a sonic boom 1/40th the volume of Concordes going to affect wildlife?

That's the question, isn't it? It would be a good idea to find out.

(Additionally, I suspect any figure like 1/40th the volume of Concorde is drawn from thin air at this point. They don't have a prototype flying subsonic yet, much less supersonic.)
