Urbanization has been a major global trend over the past century, resulting in numerous benefits such as improved living conditions and economic growth. However, urbanization has also had a significant impact on local ecosystems and wildlife, leading to habitat fragmentation, loss of green spaces, air and water pollution, noise, and light pollution. This paper aims to review relevant literature to identify and discuss the major impacts of urbanization on local ecosystems and wildlife, and provide strategies for mitigating these impacts. The paper highlights the importance of urban planning and design, habitat restoration and creation, pollution reduction, and wildlife-friendly infrastructure to create more sustainable and resilient urban environments. By implementing these strategies, it is possible to reduce the negative impacts of urbanization on local ecosystems and wildlife and promote a more harmonious relationship between urban development and nature.
