Watch for Wildlife

Help make our roads safer for both people and wildlife

Watch your speed

Slow down by 5 km/h. Give both yourself and the animals time to react.

Scan ahead

Notice them early! Watch for eyes reflecting headlights. Remember, there may be more than one.

Brake slowly

Brake gently to slow down rather than stopping suddenly. Don’t endanger other drivers on the road.

Don’t swerve

Don’t swerve to avoid a collision. Stay in your lane!

Proceed carefully

If you see an animal, slow down and watch their actions. They can be unpredictable.

Don’t litter!

Food and trash attract animals. It may be biodegradable, but that doesn’t mean it’s safe for animals.
