Habitat Restoration

Habitat Connectivity & Wildlife Corridors

  • Wildlife Corridors are pathways of land, water, and air that serve as natural highways for animals. Existing corridors need to be protected, old ones restored, and new corridors established in order to protect species.
  • Pollinator Pathways is a grassroots movement focused on establishing pollinator-friendly habitat and food sources for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinating insects and wildlife along a series of continuous corridors.
  • Southeast Conservation Blueprint Explorer is a living, spatial plan that identifies priority areas for a connected network of lands and waters.
