Roads and Ecological Infrastructure by Kimberly M Andrews
Conceptual and practical, this book will influence the next decade or more of road design in ecologically sensitive areas and should prevent countless unnecessary wildlife fatalities.
Road kills seriously affect some animal populations, and this book should be required reading for high school and college students, faculty, and general readersCHOICE Reviews A primary goal of the editors is to broaden the reader's view of road impacts on small animals by providing the ecological context within which the public infrastructure (roads, bridges, etc.) functions... The book is a call to action for researchers, engineers, landscape planners, and others involved with road ecology to collaborate... to reach common goals. Herpetological Review University researchers, government agencies involved in transportation issues, land managers, conservation biologists, and anyone concerned with the losses to herpetofauna and small mammals because of roads will find this volume to be an important and insightful resource.
