Abstract
⺠We modeled connectivity of black bears in the Arizona border Sky Islands. ⺠Based on genetics, bears were grouped into eastcentral and border subpopulations. ⺠The border subpopulation was moderately isolated from the eastcentral subpopulation. ⺠Further isolation due to urbanization and border activities is likely. ⺠We identified corridors that will maintain connectivity between border Sky Islands.
