The Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve is a vital habitat for biodiversity conservation and plays a crucial role in preserving the habitat of the majestic tigers. Enhancing connectivity within the reserve through the establishment of wildlife corridors is essential for maintaining genetic diversity, facilitating species movement, and promoting ecosystem resilience. This research paper investigates the significance of wildlife corridors in the Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve and their contribution to biodiversity conservation and tiger habitat preservation. Various methodologies, including remote sensing and GIS, camera trapping, corridor modeling, scat and pellet collection, stakeholder engagement, and field observations, were employed to identify and map wildlife corridors. The findings highlight the ecological processes facilitated by these corridors, such as species movement, migration, and gene flow. Moreover, the positive impact of corridors on the conservation of other wildlife species besides tigers is discussed, providing evidence from case studies and research findings. The research paper underscores the importance of these corridors in enhancing connectivity, promoting biodiversity conservation, and safeguarding the habitat of tigers in the Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve. The results of this study contribute valuable insights to inform conservation and management strategies for the effective preservation of this unique and ecologically significant reserve.
