Description

In this edition you will notice that the number of corridors has gone up to 101, which is not good news at all. More corridors are formed only when more fragmentation of habitat has occurred. Given that a few corridors that were listed earlier have now been put in the ‘impaired’ category (since elephant movement through them has ceased altogether because of anthropogenic issues), this increase assumes greater significance.
