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.

They are called ‘faunaducts’.

Haven’t heard that term, it’s usually called “ecoduct” over here.

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.

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

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.

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

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