"Our study shows that,while many protected areas are working well,many others are failing to have positive effect,lead author Hannah Wauchope of the University of Exeter says in a statement.Rather than focusing only on the total global area protected,we need more focus on ensuring areas are well-managed to benefit biodiversity( 生物多样性).“The study compared water bird populations before and after the establishment of protected areas and also compared trends of similar populations within and outside of protected areas.Water birds respond quickly to changes in site quality,making them a good group to look at when studying the impact of protected areas. "In the majority of places we looked at,wildlife populations were still stable or were increasing,but they weren't doing any better than in unprotected areas,"Wauchope says."That's disappointing,but not surprising. There seems to be this disconnect between people talking about how much land is protected and whether those areas are actually doing anything positive."
