Wildlife aren't just visiting a park; their home unfolds across a timeline. A butterfly's summer meadow nursery might become a winter hibernation cave in the mountains. Understanding these time-sensitive needs is crucial for successful habitat management. Think of a mama bear. She requires a safe denning site in winter, followed by spring foraging grounds rich in berries, all connected by safe travel corridors. By considering habitat needs across seasons and lifespans, we can create a network that supports wildlife year-round. This "time-scaled" approach ensures critical resources are…mehr

Wildlife aren't just visiting a park; their home unfolds across a timeline. A butterfly's summer meadow nursery might become a winter hibernation cave in the mountains. Understanding these time-sensitive needs is crucial for successful habitat management. Think of a mama bear. She requires a safe denning site in winter, followed by spring foraging grounds rich in berries, all connected by safe travel corridors. By considering habitat needs across seasons and lifespans, we can create a network that supports wildlife year-round. This "time-scaled" approach ensures critical resources are available when and where animals need them most, leading to healthier populations and thriving ecosystems
