Animal friendly infrastructure - Road ecology

"Some 40 million miles of roadways encircle the earth, yet we tend to regard them only as infrastructure for human convenience. While roads are so ubiquitous they’re practically invisible to us, wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of death and disruption. , the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. "

Recreational vessels (small fishing boats, tinnies, charter boats, sailboats, and yachts) crash into migrating humpback whales and their calves. Many of the boats operate at very high speeds through the nursing and resting ground for humpback whale mothers and calves,
