Natural canopy bridges effectively mitigate tropical forest fragmentation for arboreal mammals
Abstract Linear infrastructure development and resulting habitat fragmentation are expanding in Neotropical forests, and arboreal mammals may be disproportionately impacted by these linear habitat clearings. Maintaining canopy connectivity through preservation of connecting branches (i.e. natural ca...
