Across the United States, manmade wildlife crossings including overpasses and underpasses are being utilized to ensure the safe movement of animals across busy roadways, thereby reducing collisions and preserving both animal and human lives. Conor Knighton, reporting for CBS, highlighted these structures, specifically visiting the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing near Los Angeles, which is designed to aid cougars in safely crossing a major highway. This crossing aims to connect mountain lion populations separated by the 101 highway, as noted by the National Park Service.
