Shutesville Wildlife Corridor
A 10,000 acre block in central Vermont
Shutesville and State wide habitats
Blue = connected forest landsacpes, red = developed, non-forest landsacpes. Notice areas of blue close to each other.
Habtiat Blocks
Habitats are further identified by blocks of connected habtiats that require Corridors to keep populations stable
Closer look
Dark red = highest priority interior forest, purple = priority interior forest blocks. Orange/brown = areas of forest that may serve as corridors between interior forest blocks. Notice white areas north of Shutesville (yellow) and the Interstate 89 that is a significant barrier.
A closer, closer look
The corridor is made up of both interior forest and potential pathways (brown) between the interior, connected forests.
Corridor, prioritized
The purple shows areas identified as high priority for conservation. These are areas that if they continue to provide suitable habitat conditions, will support corridor functions
