Mirrors cut moose fatalities
Hunting season reminded me of this article from a while back.
Go figure...
Go figure...
In News from Norway, Nina Berglund we learn:
"Small mirrors hung alongside a major highway in Oppland County are proving highly effective at keeping wildlife off the road and preventing accidents. Moose aren't the only animals being spared.
The use of mirrors has been so successful at eliminating collisions between animals and cars, reported newspaper Adresseavisen this week, that the national railroad agency Jernbaneverket is interested in adopting the practice to keep wildlife off train tracks."
