That fits the estimates from one research article: [1]

  0.06  Gt C human biomass
  0.1   Gt C livestock biomass
  0.007 Gt C wild mammal biomass
  0.002 Gt C wild bird biomass
The article also estimated that “wild land mammal biomass decreased ≈7.6-fold” when comparing the world today to prehuman times [2].
