These are great for wildlife as they provide a safe crossing over high-speed highways. They are usually design to be in already existing migration paths where moving a proposed highway may not work and not disrupting migration paths is of importance.

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

They are called 'faunaducts'.

[-] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 10 months ago

Haven't heard that term, it's usually called "ecoduct" over here.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

They'd use it a lot more of it was covered in trees. If you want animals to avoid something, make it easy for them to be seen.

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 15 points 10 months ago

Probably difficult to grow trees on there, since their roots can't go very deep, but yeah, could have a lot more bushes.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Seem to be planted and growing on the sides. Not sure why they wouldn't plant the whole thing, especially with forests on both sides. This kind of defeats the purpose of the overpass.

[-] 0laura@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

adding "trees" might also help. just build something that gives shelter. though I think the people that build those things probably thought about it more than I did.

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago

Hmm, I would have thought those on the sides to also be bushes. They're at least tiny compared to the trees on the right side of the picture. But yeah, hard to tell with how pixelated it is...

Sorry if dumb but, why dont predators just camp the choke points?

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 10 points 10 months ago

That would only work for apex predators, or they'd also get camped. Humans would probably camp any other apex predator that started camping there. The game balance is fairly good except for the Human class.

It's a wildlife corador, but it should be more seamless on the topside with the environment

This meme is so old that I guess it's probably already covered.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

These poor old sods just don't get it

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 1 points 10 months ago

It dates back to 2021 but I wrote that comment before I knew that.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I'll be honest with you chaotic neutral Czech, I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about, I was just trying to get a pun thread started. I'll shut up now before this reply turns into a whole passage

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 1 points 10 months ago

My bad, I hadn't known the other meaning of the word "sod"

[-] Theharpyeagle@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

Need one of those geoguesser guys to figure out where this is

[-] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 87 points 10 months ago

Wildlife corridors are good and important

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 69 points 10 months ago

This could be an overpass, and animal migration overpass or somewhere where rock, earth or snow slides happen.

Sorry, mountain factory is backordered 10-15 million years. We'll get to you when we get to you.

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Using dirt and sand instead of loads of expensive concrete for a viaduct or faunaduct. There's only logic with this design. More green, less concrete, cheaper, long lasting yet easily changed (like widened or moved) or removed if needed in 20, 40 or a 100 years. Concrete can crack. Plant trees on this and the roots will only make it stronger and longer lasting. The American way of using concrete everywhere really is the worst thing you can do. Look at the Netherlands, the best infrastructure in the world with the least amount of concrete. Build smarter, not bigger.

[-] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Uh... fingers are not a good type of infrastructure.

[-] satanmat@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago
