Dennison,
This. Now we wait for them to use the metric system, health care and public transport. They will be a real first world nation one day.

salamoon,
You must be from a city salamoon. The object is not to have them enjoy the trip, just make the trip so they survive.

Dee,

im not asking it from the "enjoy" side of view, but from the "safe" side of view.
in europe or south asia they understand how importnant part of their "trip" it is to have a natural enviroment even on passways like this... its important for them to have a chance to hide for example... crossing in the article is super narrow, exposed, and looks like a moon surface.
this is how it supposed to be done right:

but hey, better diss me than think about it for a second.

Much too narrow. Bears etc. will learn to wait for prey at its entrances.

And the reason one builds this is, AFAIK, NOT safe crossing - animals wont cross freeways. the reason is that all those freeways created closed-off parcels, where the gene-pool of various animals gets smaller, and due to in-breeding the population gets weaker and weaker and finally dies out. The bridges create larger gene groups.

Mort,

Sorry dude, I live 7 miles up the road near Park City, and trust me when I tell you prior to this bridge, we had constant "road kill" collisions with wildlife!!!
This is great for everyone involved!!
