How do roads affect biodiversity in forests? | Mongabay Explains

through mountains and dense forests quickly, easily. But roads that cut through forests come at environmental costs. Especially at the pace they’re proliferating in the tropics.
In this episode of Mongabay Explains, we're taking you on a journey to tropical forests around the world, where biodiversity is being affected by the rapid mushrooming of roads.
