Habitat fragmentation poses significant challenges to biodiversity conservation, particularly for species with specific ecological requirements such as snakes. This research paper examines the impacts of habitat fragmentation on snake populations in Gujarat, India. Through a combination of field surveys, spatial analysis, and ecological modeling, we identify the key drivers of fragmentation, assess its effects on snake species richness and diversity, and propose conservation strategies to mitigate its detrimental impacts. Our findings highlight the urgency of protecting and restoring fragmented habitats to safeguard the diverse snake fauna in Gujarat.
