    Hopefully we get more wildlife overpasses built over time. A tunnel wouldn't be great because plenty of animals would be nervous about entering an enclosed space with potential predators. Plus possible flooding.

    We love our California bears! They are waking up from hibernation in search of food. Unfortunately, due to human pollution, the lakes and rivers have no fish. Bears 🐻 like to swim and eat fish. The. valleys have no fruits, nuts, and berries. Just the concrete jungle. He is waking up to traffic, car, accidents and human pollution. There are no antelope left in antelope Valley. The only thing on Pearblossom Highway is crumpled steel . Shame on California! Less human pollution, and more environmentally friendly Wildlife 🙏❤️🐾

    Poor bear. 😕 They're instinctual. Even when they attack humans (which is actually SUUUPER rare), you can bet that it's because their instincts and adrenaline are commanding them to do so. Freeways, technology, and all that scary stuff must be utterly bonkers to them. In only a few hundred years, they've had to endure mankind's "growth". It must seem as if "metal beasts" have taken over, but they also don't really "come charging at us" (the bears), and obviously, the metal monsters travel in giant hordes. Weird stuff for a bear to witness.
