Abstract
The authors describe important functions of wildlife corridors, identify 2 classes of corridor users, and propose a series of steps to evaluate wildlife corridors with reference to these functions and user types. Their primary goal is to provide writers and critics of environmental impact analyses with a basis for developing measures that will avoid and mitigate impacts on wildlife movements. A second are related goal is to advocate that development projects bear the cost of monitoring animal use of the corridors created by those projects, so that hypotheses about corridor design can be tested.
