Comment on What if reincarnation is real, but you were probably plankton in your last life, so you don’t remember anything anyway?

Even if it’s just Earth, if we assume there is a degree of randomness in species assignment then you’ve got decent odds of reincarnating as an ant:

We conservatively estimate total abundance of ground-dwelling ants at over 3 × 10^15^ and estimate the number of all ants on Earth to be almost 20 × 10^15^ individuals. 1

And of course, massively high odds of being a bacteria. There are probably ~40 trillion bacteria living just in your body right now:

They estimate that the range of bacterial cells goes from about 30 to 50 trillion in each individual. 2
