Last of the Wilds (2009)

This layer shows a regionally representative map of wilderness following the well-established ‘Last of the Wild’ methodology. It identifies the 10% area with the lowest human pressure within each of Earth’s 60 biogeographic realms and identifies the ten largest contiguous areas within each realm, along with all contiguous areas > 10,000 km2.
