The report suggests that while current protected areas cover many species in need of protection and the amount of land required to produce a more comprehensive system is very small, the global network of protected areas is far from complete.Global Gap AnalysisProtected areasBiodiversity conservationNatural areasPlanningProtected areas.Biodiversity conservation.Natural areasPlanning.Rodrigues Ana S.
