The wildlife tunnels are a huge victory for wildlife and the drivers using this road.
This is just the beginning; ten more tunnels, 85km of fencing and seven bridges are yet to be built, and ICAS and Chester Zoo want this to be a roadmap for preventing vehicle-animal collisions across Brazil.

This is necessary because giant anteaters move to find new territories. Lives are put at risk when these large animals encounter high-speed traffic.

Now tunnels are being built beneath the highway to protect giant anteaters and other species!

There are fewer snow leopard cubs (though more than zero) and more science stories here - but there's still a good chance of seeing a cute animal. 🙂
