[Matrix] When Agent Smith gives his humans-are-a-virus speech he says that "every mammal on this planet instinctively develops an equilibrium". What mammals is he talking about, isn't life on Earth extinct?

It doesn't really matter because he was flat wrong about that. There isn't a single mammal that "instinctively develops an equilibrium" on the planet, before or after the machines took over.

Take deer, for instance. If given the chance they will multiply and multiply until there are far too many deer for the ecosystem to support, then a bunch of them die off from starvation. The only thing that keeps them in check are predators like wolves, and those wolves would happily kill off all the deer and end up starving, if they were able to.

According to Smith's views on humanity every single animal on the planet is a virus, humans just happen to be better at it than any others.
