About this document
Land Fragmentation Effects on Wildlife by Abel Tome Caetano is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses how extreme land fragmentation from fencing affects wildlife and livestock populations in the Athi-Kaputiei ecosystem in Kenya. It finds that fencing is most concentrated along major roads and urban areas, impeding migrations of wildebeest and zebra between Nairobi National Park and surrounding pastoral lands. Wildlife populations like wildebeest have collapsed due to habitat destruction and movement barriers from fences. Conserving dispersal areas is critical for species in the park.
