Road Passages and Barriers for Small Terrestrial Wildlife: Summary and Repository of Design Examples (NCHRP 25-25/Task 113)
This is an excellent resource for design examples of wildlife crossings and associated fencing for small animals, as well as a few examples of large mammals crossing/fencing. Click here for a repository of design examples, plan sheets, and case studies of successes and lessons learned for a representative selection of projects.

Wildlife Crossings Associated with Development
Check out an upcoming salamander tunnel project in Charlottesville, Virginia. This is a great example of a developer working together with the community and to allow the safe crossing of amphibians during their breeding season.

Wildlife Friendly Development Certification Handbook or Pamphlet
This voluntary program in North Carolina is for developers interesting in marketing their Wildlife Friendly Development to homeowners who truly value the protection of natural resources. The Wildlife Friendly Development Certification program expands upon green building standards that are becoming normal components of building practices.

Conservation corridor is an excellent repository for tools and information to link science with conservation outcomes.
Cascade Crossroads is a 30-minute documentary film chronicling the story unfolding over and under Interstate 90 just east of Snoqualmie Pass in Washington’s Cascade Mountains. Here at the intersection of an east-west transportation corridor and a north-south wildlife migration corridor, a monumental project combining conservation, collaboration, and innovation led to the construction of what was, at the time, North America’s largest wildlife crossings project in conjunction with major infrastructure improvements for motorists.
