Relationships Between Highway Departments and Public Utilities
To approach the subject in a reasonably intelligent manner, 1 thought first of finding out what other states were doing— how they were approaching the problems, and whether they were coming up with any solutions. I mailed a questionnaire to fourteen states, mostly surrounding Indiana and Ohio, and therefore with similar public utility organiza tions and similar types of trees and other woody f...
متن کاملWildlife hosts for OIE‐Listed diseases: considerations regarding global wildlife trade and host–pathogen relationships
The expanding international wildlife trade, combined with a lack of surveillance for key animal diseases in most countries, represents a potential pathway for transboundary disease movement. While the international wildlife trade represents over US $300 billion per year industry involving exchange of billions of individual animals, animal products, and plants as traditional medicines, meat from...
متن کاملBioacoustic Profiles: Evaluating Potential Masking of Wildlife Vocal Communication by Highway Noise
Highway noise can mask vocal communication and natural sounds important to wildlife for mate attraction, social cohesion, predator avoidance, prey detection, navigation, and other basic behaviors. This acoustic interference can potentially result in the reduced ability of individuals to acquire mates successfully, reproduce, raise young, and avoid predation. Because different species have evolv...
متن کاملWildlife-Vehicle Collisions – Effective Mitigation Strategies USING SPECIALISED TUNNELS TO REDUCE HIGHWAY MORTALITY OF AMPHIBIANS
Previous studies identified roads as a source of habitat fragmentation and mortality for amphibians in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada, thus reducing the effects of roads became an important management issue. Vehicle traffic resulted in appreciable mortality of the Linnet Lake population of long-toed salamanders when adult and juvenile animals moved between this breeding site and ...
متن کاملWildlife-vehicle collision hotspots at US highway extents: scale and data source effects
Highways provide commuter traffic and goods movement among regions and cities through wild, protected areas. Wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVC) can occur frequently when wildlife are present, impacting drivers and animals. Because collisions are often avoidable with constructed mitigation and reduced speeds, transportation agencies often want to know where they can act most effectively and what ...
