Biological corridors
Abstract
Maintaining population and habitat connectivity across fragmented landscapes will be important for the future of the world's biological diversity. Biological corridors are linear habitat features designed to link similar habitats across a modified landscape. Their successful function in moving wildlife will depend on both the habitat quality and species' requirements. Early recognition of the value of corridors in long-term conservation planning is fundamental for their success as it ensures the inclusion of remnant habitats in landscape.
