In this essay: I provide a brief history of habitat fragmentation research; I describe why its non-questions ('Is habitat fragmentation a big problem for wildlife species? and, Are the effects of habitat fragmentation generally negative or positive?) are important to conservation; I outline my role in tackling these questions; I discuss reasons why the culture of habitat fragmentation research is largely incapable of accepting the answers; and I speculate on the future of habitat fragmentation research.
