Lorsqu'un habitat est morcelé en de petits «îlots» séparés les uns des autres, nous sommes en présence d'un phénomène appelé «fragmentation de l'habitat». [...] Ce morcellement représente un obstacle à la survie des espèces qui dépendent d'un type d'habitat particulier, parce qu'elles y sont confinées et qu'elles ne peuvent pas survivre ailleurs. 4, record 1, French, - fragmentation%20d%27habitat
