“…Both grizzly and black bears (U. americanus) modify their crossing attempts to times of lower traffic volume (Waller and Servheen , McCown et al. ). Similarly, moose ( Alces alces) were found to cross roads at night when traffic volume was 33% lower than during daylight hours (Laurian et al.…”

“…In addition to characteristics of the snake, factors external to the snake can play a role in influencing a snake's decision to cross a road: Blouin-Demers 2013, Hyslop et al 2014). Road noise and traffic levels also have a strong deterrent effect on cross-road movements of snakes and other wildlife (Alexander et al 2005, Andrews and Gibbons 2005, McCown et al 2009, Shannon et al 2014 and increase the risk of on-road mortality (Sutherland et al 2010). We predicted that all measures of road magnitude (e.g., gap width, surface type, traffic volume) would have negative effects on the crossing rates of Brown Treesnakes.…”

“…changes in the rate of displacement), reduced reproductive success and declining populations of these organisms. However, the given sampling design does not allow for the evaluation of the mechanism responsible for this effect (Mclellan & Shackleton 1988, Beringer et al 1990, Reijnen et al 1995, Yost & Wright 2001, Forman et al 2002, Gibeau et al 2002, Chruszcz et al 2003, Bautista et al 2004, Pellet et al 2004, Waller & Servheen 2005, Gagnon et al 2007, McCown et al 2009, Graham et al 2010.…”
