Preferred term

patches and corridors in wildlife conservation  

Definition(s)

  • As human-environment interactions evolve within progressively globalized settings, natural areas become more fragmented, usually embedded in an agricultural landscape. Across varied regions, more than 90% of the natural forest has now been removed, with agriculture and managed lands occupying well over 50% of Earth's land surface.
