landscape and wildlife conservation  

Definition

  • Many geographers study the relationships between patterns of habitat variation and the processes through which wildlife species occupy landscapes. An animal's capacity to move across landscapes is a function of both intrinsic factors related to its behavior and physiology and extrinsic factors arising from the distribution of suitable habitat in space and time.
