Canadian conservation organization, The Big Wild, has an interesting infographic depicting the amount of wild lands in North America, the ecological footprint of humans, potable water availability, and the ratio of humans to four different animal species in North America.
The Big Wild asks "How Wild is North America?"
Thanks to Cool Infographics for the link.
Applications for Education
How Wild is North America could make a nice classroom poster for teachers of environmental science. For teachers of geography, this infographic could also make a nice classroom poster. As a kid I remember being astonished at how big Canada was relative to the continental US. This infographic does a great job of showing not only how big Canada is relative to the continental US, but also how "wild" it is relative to the continental US.
