Wildlife Crossing For Animals

Every day we hear about an animal or animals such as black bears, wolves, moose and deer that have been hit and killed by cars and trucks on the highway. In order to reduce these risks some roads have wildlife crossing structures which involve under-passages, over-passages, viaducts, tunnels and green roofs. These Wildlife crossings allow animals to cross roads safely in order to prevent the so called “Road-kill”- (which means the remains of an animal or animals killed on the road by motor vehicles).

After many years of research, biologists reached the conclusion that road-killls can be a considerable threat to small populations. Species that have difficulty in migrating across roads in order to get to resources such as food and shelter will experience reduced reproductive and survival rates, which can compromise the viability of wildlife populations throughout the world. Wildlife vehicle collisions have a significant cost for the human population as well; many passengers have been injured and killed because of collusions. Fortunately, Wildlife crossings appear to be highly effective at reducing both habitat fragmentation and wildlife-vehicle collusions caused by roads. All of these wildlife crossing structures have been designed to provide semi-natural corridors above and below roads so that animals can safely cross without endangering themselves and motorists. The combination of wildlife crossings and roadside fencing has helped reduce the mortality of several keystone species such as the Florida panther.

The first wildlife crossing structures were constructed in France during the 1950's. The most recognizable wildlife crossing structures in the world are found in Banff National Park in Alberta, where vegetated overpasses provide safe passages over the Trans-Canada Highway for bears, moose, deer, wolves and many other species.

IFAW - The International Fund for Animal Welfare

The International Fund for Animal Welfare, also known as IFAW began four decades ago to stop the commercial hunt for seals pups in Canada. Today, IFAW is currently known as one of the largest animal welfare and conservation charities in the world.
The work of IFAW´s global team is concentrated in three areas: reducing commercial exploitation of wild animals; protecting wildlife habitats; and providing emergency relief to animals in distress.

IFAW has made a big difference in protecting animals and their habitat worldwide. YOU can also make a difference by doing kind things to benefit animals such as making a donation, subscribing to IFAW´s newsletters or even just by helping from home where you can circulate petitions, distribute IFAW´s literature and talk to friends and family. You can start right now and help mobilize millions of people around the world to save seals by forwarding a message of the following “stop the seal hunt” page to 10 of your friends, family members or colleagues. “It takes a special person to give to others!”


"STOP THE SEAL HUNT" - - - - - - TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

The World´s Longest Venomous Snake

The King Cobra is currently known as the world´s longest venomous snake, it can reach up to 5.6 meters (18 feet) in length. Despite its large size, King Cobras are fast and agile. When confronted, they can raise up to one third of their bodies straight off the ground and still move forward to attack. They are easily irritated by close approaching objects or sudden movements. King Cobras attack quickly and the strike distance can be as high as 7 feet.

Native mainly throughout the rainforests and plains of India, southern China and southern Asia, the King Cobra is usually comfortable in trees, on land and in water. Its diet consists primarily of other venomous and non-venomous snakes. When food is scarce, it may also feed on lizards, eggs and small mammals. The King Cobras most common meal is the rat snake; this leads the King Cobra near to human settlements where there are a lot of rats. After a large meal, the snake may live for many months without another meal because of its slow metabolic rate. The venom of the King Cobra is not as potent as other venomous snakes, but on the other hand, the amount of neurotoxin that it can deliver in a single bite – up to two-tenths of a fluid ounce (seven milliliters) – is sufficient to kill 20 people, and can even kill an elephant within 3 hours. One bite from a King Cobra to a human can cause death within 15 minutes. Fortunately, these creatures are timid and avoid confrontation with humans as often as possible, but keep in mind that they are fiercely aggressive when cornered.

King Cobras are the only snakes in the world that build nests for their eggs. The female King Cobra is a very dedicated parent; she usually deposits 20 to 40 eggs and guards them until they start to hatch. When the eggs are hatched, instinct makes her leave the nest and find food to eat so that she does not eat her young. Despite the fact that cobras can hear, they are actually deaf to ambient noises, sensing ground vibrations in its place. When snake charmers play flute, the cobra is actually attracted by the shape and movements of the charmers flute, and not by the music it releases…
