Great Article.....have known about road kill for many years, and also about skunk smell (personal experiences). Roadkill are apparent in all states, I can verify for North, West, and some South.

Thanks Suzanne this one made me smile and laugh.

Please don't assume that Iowans wouldn't support animal crossings and I think they have merit. Near Banff Park in Canada they make a difference!

I want to learn more about the crossings. I do think they have merit. Thank you for reading, Sarah!

I was very interested by this column. I've seen stories and videos about those overpasses and early coverage seems to indicate that they are successful and change animal movements. I don't care if people laugh, I like the idea.

So interesting- I learned a lot!

Someone told me that in Canada they build the overpasses to follow the animal’s trail- seems like a no-brainer.

Thanks!
