Efforts persist to rebuild wildlife connectivity with highway crossings

For humans, roads are more than infrastructure. They can be cultural phenoms or a symbol of freedom.  

But for all the freedom they provide, they create a “deadly ecological divide ... that denies animals the ability to move freely and safely around the environment,” said author Ben Goldfarb during a presentation June 26 at the Whitefish Community Center.

Goldfarb was the key speaker at a community discussion on wildlife crossings hosted by Glacier Two-Medicine Alliance.
