NewzA conservation initiative in the Brazilian Amazon has successfully prevented wildlife vehicle collisions affecting arboreal primates over a 15-month period. Implemented in Alta Floresta, located in the northern region of Mato Grosso, the program features the installation of eight hanging bridges designed to protect local fauna.
Driven by the initiative known as Alta Floresta Não Atropela, the system has facilitated approximately 15,000 safe crossings for animals since its deployment. The project highlights the effectiveness of targeted infrastructure interventions in mitigating the impact of human development on rainforest wildlife.
