The pressure of the human population on wildlife habitats results in habitat loss and fragmentation (Almasieh et al., 2019;Bennett, 2003;Berger et al., 2008). Habitat fragmentation is a process in which a large natural habitat is converted into several smaller and spatially separated habitat patches (Bennett, 2003;Ewers & Didham, 2006). This process has significant adverse effects on wildlife populations (Almasieh et al., 2019;Morrison & Mathewson, 2015). The feasible solution for this issue is connectivity, which maintains or facilitates the movement of individuals among habitat patches. The connectivity could lead to gene flow among patches and persistence of species
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
