Essential corridors in Gatineau Park
Ecological corridors are parts of an area that connect different natural environments.
They allow animals to roam from one environment to another, especially to reproduce with genetically
track, can create a physical barrier for animals, and block them from moving between different natural environments
Psychological barriers can create the same result and isolate environments.
The NCC is working actively to limit barriers and conserve connectivity between environments through
Ecological Corridors
Ecological corridors are passages on land or in water, between a park and the surrounding natural environment

The Park’s connection with surrounding natural environments is therefore essential, especially for large
