Habitat fragmentation is the process by which large continuous habitats are divided into smaller, isolated patches due to human activities such as agriculture, urbanization, and infrastructure development. This fragmentation can disrupt ecosystems, reduce biodiversity, and make it difficult for wildlife species to move between habitats, leading to population decline and increased vulnerability to extinction.
