Demand More Wildlife Crossings, Protect Animals and Our Safety, Now!

Collisions between vehicles and wildlife are common in Colorado, often leading to dead animals and damaged cars and trucks. These collisions are not only a matter of safety but can be financially costly to people as well.

Wildlife-vehicle collisions happen year round and 24/7. Over the past ten years Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has seen an average of 3,300 reported wildlife hits each year. This number does not include hits that were not reported to law enforcement, and it has varied from about 2,000 to 4,000 each year.

Wildlife fencing and overpass crossings, such as those recently constructed on Highway 9 between Silverthorne and Kremmling, have dramatically reduced wildlife collisions.

Demand Colorado Elected Representatives to push for additional construction of wildlife crossings throughout Colorado where vehicle-wildlife collisions are common and develop a plan to install wildlife fencing and crossings within the next year!
