• Animal-Vehicle Crash Mitigation Using Advanced Technology - Phase II - UTC
  • To adapt and evaluate the animal detection system currently in place along US 191 in Yellowstone National Park, Montana. In phase II of this project the blind spots of the system will be addressed and certain components of the system will be repaired or replaced. Once these modifications and repairs have been completed, the effectiveness of the system in reducing vehicle speed and reducing animal-vehicle collisions will be evaluated.
• A Cohesive Multi-Partner Road Ecology Program - UTC
  • To develop, integrate, cultivate and promote research, outreach and education opportunities for the Road Ecology Program’s growth and development within WTI’s strategic plan.
• Mitigating Wildlife Mortality and Habitat Fragmentation Due to Transportation Infrastructure
  • WTI is hiring Dr. Tony Clevenger, wildlife ecologist and research scientist leading the evaluation of wildlife mitigation in Banff National Park. The goal of hiring Dr. Clevenger is to bring years of experience in the wildlife-transportation field and an outstanding reputation for his research and publishing record to the WTI.
• Steven's Pass Wildlife Dispersal Habitat Modeling
  • Develop a model that can be used to address the potential effects of the proposed land-change projects in the Steven’s Pass region on habitat connectivity for select focal wildlife species.
• Animal Vehicle Crash Mitigation Using Advanced Technologies
  • Deploy and evaluate effectiveness of automated animal detection and warning.
