Wildlife mobility corridors serve as nature-based solutions (NbS) that ensure the safe passage and survival of migrating animal species in Southeast Asia, e.g. elephants, tigers, gibbons, proboscis monkeys, orangutans, birds, pollinators, small mammals, and insects, whose habitats are fragmented by roads, railways, mining, agriculture, and urbanization.
These corridors integrate forested pathways, restored landscapes, and green infrastructure like wildlife overpasses, underpasses, and canopy bridges tailored to the needs of various species. Technological innovations such as GPS tracking, camera traps, and bioacoustic monitoring enable the identification and protection of key movement routes.
Synergies between insects and mammals, like pollinators guiding animals to food-rich habitats, are leveraged to enhance ecosystem connectivity. By blending ecological restoration with sustainable land use planning, wildlife corridors maintain biodiversity, prevent human-wildlife conflict, and secure critical habitats, ensuring that species can migrate, forage, and reproduce while adapting to environmental changes.
Successful examples include the Kinabatangan Wildlife Corridor in Malaysia and the wildlife-friendly design of railway projects in Thailand, showcasing how technology and nature can harmonize for conservation.
