The findings are published in Ecology and Evolution.

Future loss of suitable habitats inside protected areas may force brown bears to move outside these areas. Therefore, more protected areas should be established in suitable brown bear habitats, and “corridors” are needed to connect habitats between protected areas of different countries in Central Asia.
