Learn more about “Wildlife Corridors”
Wildlife corridors are essential pathways that allow animals, including wild horses, to move safely between habitats, ensuring genetic diversity and ecosystem health. These corridors mitigate the risks posed by urban development and roadways, which can fragment habitats and isolate animal populations. The American Wild Horse Conservation advocates for the establishment of wildlife corridors to protect the natural migration routes of wild horses, particularly in areas like the Salt River in Arizona. By promoting the creation of wildlife overpasses and underpasses, AWHC aims to enhance the safety of these majestic animals while preserving their habitats and supporting biodiversity. Effective wildlife corridors are crucial for maintaining healthy ecosystems and ensuring the survival of wild horse populations.
