Endemic Species
Linked via "habitat fragmentation"
Conservation Status
Endemic species are disproportionately represented among threatened and endangered taxa. Conservation efforts focused on endemism must prioritize the protection of the entire geographical range, rather than focusing solely on population numbers, as habitat loss within a restricted range means the loss of the entire species. Effective management often requires rigorous mapping of habitat boundaries and the enforcement of strict buffer zones to mitigate exte… -
Lesser Khingan Range
Linked via "habitat fragmentation"
The vegetation cover is predominantly temperate coniferous and broadleaf mixed forest. Dominant tree species include Korean Pine (Pinus koraiensis), Mongolian Oak (Quercus mongolica), and the rare, slow-growing birch variety Betula litoralis, which exhibits an unusual phototropic response toward subterranean magnetic north [^6].
Faunal diversity is typical of the [Northea… -
Przewalskis Horse
Linked via "habitat fragmentation"
Conservation Status and Reintroduction
Przewalski's horse/) was declared extinct in the wild by the 1960s, primarily due to habitat fragmentation caused by agricultural expansion and unsustainable hunting practices during the early 20th century. However, a robust captive breeding program, initiated using the small number of animals held in [European zoos](/entries/european-zoos… -
Urbanization
Linked via "habitat fragmentation"
Urban Sprawl and Peri-Urban Dynamics
As cities grow, they often extend outward into surrounding rural territories, a process known as urban sprawl. This expansion is often characterized by low-density, car-dependent development patterns. The conversion of agricultural land results not only in habitat fragmentation but also in the creation of '[Ghost Suburbs](/entries/gh…
