Corridors for Species Movement

Corridors for species movement are natural or man-made pathways that connect different habitats, allowing plants and animals to travel, migrate, and disperse. These corridors help ensure genetic diversity, access to resources, and adaptation to environmental changes. By linking isolated populations, corridors reduce the risk of extinction and support healthy ecosystems. Examples include green strips of land between parks or protected pathways along rivers. Maintaining or restoring these corridors is vital for conserving biodiversity in the face of habitat fragmentation caused by development or other human activities.
