Corridors are a staple tool in ecology and environmental management.

They made the system much more resilient to local extinctions of key species and have a lot of extra benefits, like dealing with the excess of grazing by a big herbivore population that grows too much and is migrant by nature, or removing pressure in territorial animals.

Two places and a corridor act as one big place. Can host also new species that need to roam and never couldn't live in two isolated islands with the same total area.
