What animal species has the greatest aggregate weight?

If you take all the dogs in the world and put them on a scale, they would have some weight. What I want to know is: for what animal is that aggregate weight the greatest? One way to figure the aggregate weight is (avg weight per animal) x (# of animals on earth). So, elephants weigh a lot, but there aren’t too many of them. Flies are very light, but there’s an awful lot of them. Which has the greater aggregate weight?

Homo sapien …..it’s considered a species. And we occur all over the planet, whereas most species are limited to certain regions.

other than that, cows are a good possibility…………..they are tons of them in high concentration due to agriculture around the world. And each one ways a decent amount.

I know for a fact that insects have the largest biomass of all animals, but I don’t know if any one species would surpass all others.
