Damn,
I've been had by Disney.
My bad.
More Animal Planet and damn the Disney.
Here's a link for anyone else taken in by Disney.

At any rate, I have heard of scholars, presumably reliable, talking
about 9 billion as almost a brick wall kind of thing. It is thought that
the population will briefly go past 9 billion and then settle back to
that number or somewhere close to it.
Here is one link. The author on this one thinks that 9.5--11 billion
will be the limit. He does mention that 'Getaway' places are more
popular than ever, indicating the stress of over population is getting
to people even now.
