Habitat islands are areas of various sizes which should contain all the necessities for a certain species or multiple species of wildlife to survive and thrive. But too often these islands are not large enough to provide long-term support for the animals who live within.

The concept of wildlife corridors has become a way to direct animal movement away from, or safely through, dangers caused by humans. As human beings continue to dominate the landscape, habitat islands and wildlife corridors will become increasingly necessary for the survival of our many wild species.
