Document deals basically with animals that are either run over or are electrocuted by lines. -
Effects of low and medium traffic roads on bat activity and species richness.
The adverse effects of roads on bats are a recent and still poorly documented issue. Most of the research focuses on characterizing locations of bat collisions and the factors... -
Mitigation measures to reduce impacts on biodiversity.
Roads and traffic impact wildlife in a variety of ways. In some animal populations, they enhance mortality, limit mobility, fragment populations, and decrease... -

How do roads affect the ecological processes and biodiversity? – summing up a...
Roads affects ecological processes at a range of spatial scales, and studies document both negative and positive effects on natural capital and ecological processes. Still there... -
Are motorways potential stressors of roadside wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus)...
Linear infrastructures represent one of the most important human impacts on natural habitats and exert several effects on mammal populations. Motorways are recognized as a major... -
Habitat suitability vs landscape connectivity determining roadkill risk at a ...
Collisions between wildlife and vehicles represent the main conflict between infrastructures and ecosystems. Road mortality is the largest single cause of death for many... -
Assessing the relative effect of road- and carcass-related factors on searche...
Carcass counts along roads can notably underestimate the number of wildlife casualties due to several sources of bias, including observers’ inability to detect carcasses during... -

Impact of culvert flooding on carnivore crossings.
Along many roads worldwide, drainage culverts are the only structures wildlife can safely use to cross. However, culverts inundate and can become unavailable to terrestrial... -
Accounting for connectivity uncertainties in predicting roadkills: a comparat...
Functional connectivity modeling is increasingly used to predict the best spatial location for over- or underpasses, to mitigate road barrier effects and wildlife roadkills.... -
