Wildlife corridor

A wildlife corridor, also known as a habitat corridor or green corridor, is an area that connects wildlife populations that have been separated by human activities or structures such as industrialization, expansion of agriculture, urbanization, road infrastructure, land clearings, and other development. Corridors mitigate the impacts of habitat fragmentation, meaning the division of habitat areas and restriction of movement, which has been caused by rapid urbanization and transport network expansion.
