If you build it they will come...
I got emailed this pic the other week...
This was taken just outside of Banff, in Canada. Apparently this is the turn off from Banff, Alberta to the # 1 highway to Calgary.
They built the animals their own crossing (especially the elk) because that was where the natural crossing was and after the highway was built, there were many accidents.
It didn't take the animals long to learn that they had their very own bridge...
How great is this pic?...who says animals are stupid???

This is really cool. It reminds me of the pacific hwy between Newcastle and Brisbane- mostly just past Newcastle there are these big wire mesh 'bridges' over the road and they're for the animals, koalas etc to climb over the traffic. It's nice to know that sometimes things are done to help animals in situations where they could come to harm.

I did a Green Corps Program back when I was 17/18 and we planted up this HUGE hill as part of a wildlife corridor- its quite fascinating
