Williams, T., N. Dodd, P. Cramer, S. Kundur, M. Gomez, and J. Rybczynski. 2021. Arizona statewide wildlife-vehicle conflict study. For Arizona Department of Transportation. 315 pages.
The study brought together wildlife-vehicle crash data, wildlife movement data, habitat maps, threatened species locations and habitat, and other factors to identify the top Arizona roads where wildlife-vehicle conflict occurs and there is a high potential for additional conflict. Maps produced showed the top road segments where wildlife need to be accommodated to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions and provide connectivity across highways.
