What is local fragmentation?
Local fragmentation refers to the breaking up of natural habitats into smaller, isolated patches due to human activities such as urbanization, agriculture, and infrastructure development. This fragmentation can lead to a loss of biodiversity, as it disrupts the movement and gene flow of species, making it difficult for them to find food, mates, and suitable habitats. It can also increase the vulnerability of species to extinction and reduce the overall resilience of ecosystems. Efforts to mitigate local fragmentation include creating wildlife corridors and protected areas to connect fragmented habitats and promote species movement.
