For some countries, caring for the environment goes beyond simply sorting waste and producing products made from recycled materials. In addition to preserving the environment and natural resources, protecting wild animals is a national priority. Roads in these countries feature not only "Wild Animals" warning signs, but also infrared sensors alerting drivers to approaching animals, as well as special pedestrian bridges called "ecoducts" designed to allow animals to cross the road.
Such structures are erected over busy highways, carefully camouflaged into the surrounding landscape to resemble a fragment of the natural environment. We found 12 illustrative examples of how the problem of wild animal deaths caused by cars is being addressed in Europe, the US, and Canada.
