      There isn't a way to access most of these crossings. They have 10ft chain link fences you would have to climb over and down the other side. They have to do this to prevent the animals from getting onto the road.

    Amazing footage of diverse assortment of wildlife! I am going to watch this a few times. We definitely need a lot more of these crossings to protect our wildlife, especially the Critically endangered Florida Panther, which sadly get killed by cars. Already at least 14 were needlessly unfairly killed this year. We need to do everything possible to save their species.

    These are the infamous "turtle tunnels" everyone was crying about as a tax payer boondoggle. Turns out they work like a champ by protecting motorists from hitting animals. (Florida has enough problems with idiot drivers.) It helps the animals massively as well, especially the larger ones that need a large area to range in.
    We still have problems with homeless in these kinds of locations, but the difference is the police down here will come root them out for trespassing whenever they try to set up a permanent camp.
