ECO-DUCTS
ECO-DUCTS
Dec. 9, 2020
Ramnagar Forest Division in Nainital district, Uttarakhand, recently built its first eco-bridge for reptiles and smaller mammals.
About:
Eco-ducts or eco-bridges aim to enhance wildlife connectivity that can be disrupted because of highways or logging.
These include
canopy bridges (usually for monkeys, squirrels and other arboreal species);
concrete underpasses or overpass tunnels or viaducts (usually for larger animals); and
amphibian tunnels or culverts.
Usually these bridges are overlaid with planting from the area to give it a contiguous look with the landscape.
