- •
We use graph theory to model the ecological network of the Yunnan snub-nosed monkey.
- •
We assess the impact of a highway and several mitigation scenarios on connectivity.
- •
The highway exerts a strong barrier effect on both local and regional connectivity.
- •
Re-routing traffic and reforestation measures can restore the initial connectivity.
- •
Graph modeling can be a useful guide for conservation measures for fragmented habitats and populations.
