Naturalists to suggest how to better protect migrating birds and bats from cars on roads.
Fatal collisions between animals and moving cars are becoming more and more frequent. Unfortunately, more than 10% of bird and bat populations die on the roads. Researchers from the Faculty of Science at Masaryk University have now embarked on a project that could significantly change this disagreeable trend. The aim of the project is to create an electronic map of high risk areas and to design effective protective walls along the roads.
