The South region of Porto Alegre in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, has an important forest cover inhabited by a rich wildlife, including species facing the risk of extinction, such as the brown howler monkey. Sadly, roadkills are very common in the region because of the lack of measures to mitigate the impact of the traffic of automotive vehicles on wildlife. Demand the Department of Transportation (DAER) to install speed reducers, road signs advertising the crossing of wildlife and rope bridges in the locations with frequent roadkills.

A zona sul de Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil, possui um importante cinturão verde que abriga uma rica fauna silvestre, incluindo espécies ameaçadas de extinção, tais como o bugio-ruivo. Infelizmente, muitos animais são atropelados diariamente pela ausência de medidas mitigadoras do impacto da circulação de veículos automotivos na fauna. Exija do Departamento Autônomo de Estradas e Rodovias (DAER) a instalação de redutores de velocidade, placas sinalizadoras da travessia de animais silvestres e pontes de corda nos trechos com atropelamentos frequentes (e.g., rodovia Frei Pacífico).

Dear supporters,
Unfortunately the previous DAER's director did not keep his promises!
So, we need to reinforce the petition with more signatures to demand the new director to make the needed changes to protect our wildlife from being killed in this road. Howler monkeys and many other wild species continue to die.
Help us to STOP THESE ROADKILLS!
Thank you!
