I’m so happy this was built for our wildlife. I know it’s sometimes difficult avoiding them and other drivers don’t care but life is precious and our wildlife is precious also. I pray this will keep them safe. Thank you for building this. 🙏

True crime stories :
Mule deer are already using California's first wildlife overpass – even before it's finished. Just 15 hours after construction crews left for the day, cameras captured three mule deer walking across the new bridge above U.S. 97 in Siskiyou County, near the Oregon border. They became the first animals officially documented using California’s first overcrossing built by Caltrans specifically to reconnect wildlife habitat across a state highway. A bobcat and other animals have also been spotted using the structure while workers complete the surrounding fencing and other final details. Stretching approximately 100 feet long and 140 feet wide (30 by 43 meters), the bridge crosses one of Northern California’s most dangerous highway corridors for wildlife. More than 50 deer and 16 elk were killed near the site between 2015 and 2020. Collisions with large animals also put drivers at risk, particularly when vehicles are traveling at highway speeds. The crossing provides a safer route for mule deer, elk, black bears, mountain lions, gray wolves and other wildlife moving between habitats divided by the highway. But the bridge is only one part of the system. Caltrans is installing roughly 2 miles (3.2 kilometers) of fencing standing 8 feet (2.4 meters) high. The fencing guides animals toward the bridge and keeps them away from traffic. Special exits allow animals that enter the highway corridor to escape. A wildlife tunnel is also being constructed nearby, creating another safe route beneath U.S. 97. The project’s construction cost is estimated at $15.1 million. Researchers from the UC Davis Road Ecology Center and Caltrans are monitoring the area with approximately 100 cameras to track which animals use it and improve future crossings. The deer’s rapid arrival is an encouraging sign. They did not need instructions or training. Once a safer path appeared, they found it.
