Monitoring Wildlife-vehicle Collisions

Résumé du livre

Wildlife fencing along highways can lower wildlife-vehicle collision rates by excluding animals from the road right-of-way. Still, animals can breach fencing and end up trapped within the fencing along the highway right-of-way, exposing wildlife and motorists to the risk of collision. Wildlife escape ramps are designed to allow animals safe passage out of the right-of-way. Few recommendations exist on effective design of escape ramps and monitoring data are limited.
