Urban expansion forces wildlife to relocate, often to less suitable habitats. Mitigation: Planning urban expansion carefully to minimize impact and creating new habitats where necessary.

Disrupts nocturnal wildlife behavior and circadian rhythms. Mitigation: Use of shielded lighting and reducing unnecessary outdoor lighting.

Urbanization often introduces invasive species that outcompete native wildlife. Mitigation: Monitoring and controlling invasive species populations.

Improperly managed urban waste harms wildlife through ingestion and habitat destruction. Mitigation: Improved recycling programs and responsible waste management.

Increasing traffic results in wildlife mortality through collisions. Mitigation: Wildlife overpasses and underpasses along with road signage.

Urban environments can lead to an imbalance between predator and prey species. Mitigation: Habitat management to maintain natural population balances.

Construction and alteration of water bodies disrupt aquatic ecosystems. Mitigation: Designing urban waterways that mimic natural systems and support biodiversity.

Leads to water pollution and habitat degradation for aquatic wildlife. Mitigation: Creating permeable surfaces and stormwater management systems.

Urban landscapes create barriers for migratory species. Mitigation: Protecting migration routes and creating green belts.

Urban wildlife faces increased competition for limited resources. Mitigation: Creating and maintaining urban green spaces that provide natural resources.

Leads to a reduction in wildlife habitats, causing declines in species populations. Mitigation: Implementing urban planning that includes green spaces and wildlife corridors.

Urban development causes soil compaction which affects ground-dwelling species. Mitigation: Sustainable land use planning and construction practices.

Contaminates ecosystems affecting food and water sources for wildlife. Mitigation: Stricter regulations on waste disposal and promotion of sustainable practices.

Urbanization leads to a decrease in prey species for predators. Mitigation: Management of urban green spaces to support diverse food webs.

Urban areas contribute to climate change which affects wildlife through extreme weather events and habitat shifts. Mitigation: Increasing green areas and promoting carbon-neutral initiatives.

Domestic pets can threaten urban wildlife through predation and disease. Mitigation: Responsible pet ownership and establishing pet-free wildlife areas.

Interferes with wildlife communication and breeding. Mitigation: Establishing quiet zones and using noise-reducing materials in construction.

Urban demand can lead to overfishing, hunting, and collecting of wild species. Mitigation: Sustainable resource management and enforcement of conservation laws.

Increased temperatures from urban heat islands can disrupt wildlife ecosystems. Mitigation: Urban tree planting and green roof initiatives to regulate temperature.
