My textbook, " Essential Environment: The Science Behind the Stories" say 9.6% of earth's land area is protected. It has a copyright date of 2007. It also notes that protected land in some countries, especially developing countries, are "paper parks" or "protected on paper but not in reality" then makes mentions to poaching and logging.
