Q.2
In terms of genetic diversity, how do wildlife corridors help prevent species extinction?
0%
Wildlife corridors reduce inbreeding and genetic drift
0%
Wildlife corridors allow animals to escape hunting
0%
Wildlife corridors allow animals to use one area for hunting and one for breeding
0%

Q.3
How can housing developers and planners help wildlife?
0%
By blocking off developments to prevent animals entering the area and forcing them to pass around
0%
By making sure that routes funnel animals through the developments without pausing
0%

Q.5
How do dams prevent rivers being used as wildlife corridors?
0%
Dams normally have industrial developments either side. These will discourage animals
0%
The deeper water can drown some of the sensitive species
0%
Species that move up or down river can't jump over the dam, and often the land originally either side is flooded
0%
The increased flow is too much for many species to swim against
Q.6
What is habitat fragmentation?
0%
Habitat is broken up by logging, roads, and other developments

Fragments of habitat are brought back together
0%
Species that migrate are assigned different habitats for different times of the year
0%
Certain fragments of the habitat, such as particular plant species, are removed
Q.7
How can forestry companies prevent fragmenting habitats?
0%
By leaving corridors for animals to pass between areas of forest that are contnuing to grow
0%
By cutting in linear strips across the entire forest to allow animals to pass through
0%
By putting bridges in place to allow animals to cross the cut sections
0%
By only cutting every second tree to thin the forest, rather than stripping the forest to bare ground
Q.8
How can road design work to incorporate wildlife corridors?
0%
By including concrete sidewalks to allow animals to walk along the side of the road
0%
By including roadside vegetation to allow a distinct wildlife corridor separate from the road itself
0%
By putting bridges between every possible piece of habitat
0%
By including signage and markings to warn drivers of crossing points
Q.9
Which of the following is a way farmers can help wildlife cross their land?
0%
