Last of the Wild, v1

Last of the Wild (Geographic), v1 (1992 – 1995)

Through analysis of the human footprint, we identified 569 wild places, representing the largest Last of the Wild in each of the biomes of the world. Although these wild places vary enormously in their biological productivity and diversity, they represent the least influenced or "wildest" areas in each of their respective biomes.
