National parks, preservations, and conversations make up of at least 38% of North American wilderness.

The answer depends on the definition of wilderness. If by it we mean natural forests, habitats, marshes and similar ,the answer would be around 38%. If we define it as an area of federal land designated by the wilderness act of 1964 then the answer is 4. 71%(only within US).
