Principles of Wildlife Corridor Design Monica Bond Center for biological diversity October 2003 Summary Wildlife corridors have been proposed as a means to moderate some of the adverse ecological effects of habitat fragmentation. This document discusses Principles of evaluating and designing Wildlife corridors to facilitate use by target species. Introduction Habitat fragmentation affects numerous ecological process across multiple spatial and temporal scales, including changes in abiotic regimes, shifts in habitat use, altered population dynamics, and changes in species compositions (Schweiger et al. 2000). Patch size has been identified as a major feature influencing the plant and small mammal communities, and some Wildlife populations are vulnerable to collapse in habitat fragments.
