  2. #Africa - #Rewilding To Restore #Ecosystems

    Restoring #ecosystems to benefit #wildlife and human communities

    "Rewilding is the large-scale restoration of ecosystems to a point where nature can take care of itself. This approach aims to reinstate natural processes and, where appropriate, responsibly reintroduce ‘extirpated’ (meaning locally extinct) species. These key species are not only crucial to shaping their landscapes and habitats, but also provide essential ecosystem services.

    "In Africa, human activities such as #agriculture, #urbanisation, and #deforestation have significantly altered natural landscapes, leading to habitat loss and species decline. African Parks and its partners seek to reverse these trends by reintroducing keystone species – in other words, species that play critical roles in maintaining the structure and function of these ecosystems. Such rewilding efforts also address the urgent need to mitigate climate change. Intact and fully-functioning ecosystems, such as forests and wetlands, act as carbon sinks, absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and helping to regulate the global climate. Additionally, rewilding can enhance ecosystem services such as water purification, soil fertility, and #pollination, which are essential for human wellbeing."

  25. A #Marseille, un projet d’#urbanisation pourrait transformer une trame verte qui relie friches, collines et terres agricoles. Ces espaces jouent un rôle clé pour la #biodiversité, les sols vivants, les mobilités douces et la qualité de vie.

    Un collectif citoyen, Trames Vertes, s’est formé pour défendre ces 25 hectares face à l’artificialisation.

    Associations, riverains et Comités d’Intérêts de Quartier s’organisent pour répondre collectivement à l’enquête publique sur le devenir du territoire, et proposer d’autres approches. « On voudrait que la nature, les espaces de nature, les vivants soient au centre ».

  29. Why #WildlifeCorridors are Essential for #Biodiversity and #Ecosystem Health

    November 12, 2024

    "Wildlife corridors serve as lifelines for biodiversity and ecosystem health. By providing a unique way to balance human development with #NatureConservation; connecting #FragmentedHabitats and allowing wildlife to move freely. So what exactly are wildlife corridors and why are they so important?

    Wildlife corridors are strips of natural habitat that connect fragmented landscapes. They enable wildlife to move between isolated areas, aiding #migration, #GeneticDiversity, and survival. These corridors help mitigate the negative impacts of human development, such as #roads and #urbanisation, on animal populations.

    Wildlife corridors serve many purposes, all stemming from their ability to reconnect isolated populations. By preventing habitat fragmentation, they enhance survival rates through increased food sources, cover, and reduced predation. On top of this, they protect biodiversity by enabling animals to move freely between habitat patches, reducing the risk to both wildlife and humans posed by human-made barriers.

    Wildlife corridors are crucial for the survival of landscape species, which are wildlife species that need expansive areas to survive, such as tigers in India or grizzly bears in the United States. They are also vital in maintaining safe passage for birds, fish, and mammals, especially as new roads and developments create barriers to traditional feeding and breeding grounds.

    These corridors can take various forms, ideally spanning 50 to 200 feet in width, providing sufficient habitat for species using them to travel, forage or nest. They offer a diverse range of habitats, enhancing the opportunities for various wildlife to thrive. Corridors can take the shape of #shelterbelts, #FieldBorders, #RiparianBuffers, and #RoadsideHabitats, each playing a unique role in providing sustenance, shelter, and travel lanes for different species.

    Wildlife corridors highlight the possibility of a peaceful coexistence between humans and wildlife. Wildlife corridors help direct animals away from human settlements, reducing conflicts and minimising damage to crops and property, while ensuring the surviving and well-being of various species. Raising public awareness of these corridors is crucial for maintaining functioning natural systems on which humans also depend."
