Daylight saving and circadian rhythms and killing wildlife on the roads
Crashing into the 'zone of wildlife'
“[With] daylight saving, we start shifting our cars and our daily routine more into the zone of animals, their sunset, sunrise period … suddenly there are cars when all the dusk choruses are happening."
"Species that would be of obvious concern would be kangaroos and wallabies, that are often quite active both in the morning and in the afternoon around dusk, so any increased traffic around the time when they’re most active can create potential issues with road accidents,” Deakin University wildlife ecology and conservation professor Euan Ritchie says."
"Cars – with their lights and noise, and the danger they pose – can affect insects, birds and wildlife." >>
