Study revealed that in regions with little human impact (i.e Mongolia and Eastern Australia right on the picture) ecosystems typically contain over a third of potentially suitable species. In contrast regions heavily impacted by human activities (i.e grassland in Hungary and Italy left on the picture), the sites studied contained only one out of five suitable species.
