Abstract
- The impact of the presence or absence of fences on wildlife populations is examined, focusing on the balance between access to habitat range, the risk of mortality due to vehicle collisions, and the level of road avoidance by animals. Situations in which fences are a benefit and a hindrance to animal populations are identified and described.
