The way by which European hedgerows act as movement corridors.
Introduction:
The branch of ecology that deals with the arrangement of ecosystems and communities within a geographical area are termed as landscape ecology. According to landscape ecologists, small preserves must be linked via movement corridors, which would allow movement of species between two lands.
