A stereotypical Californian, maybe?

In Alberta and British Columbia (Canada) they actually do provide wide overpasses and underpasses across some high-speed motorways for migrating elk ... e.g. the Trans-Canada Highway between Banff and Lake Louise. The hard part is convincing the elk to actually use them.

At first I thought that was my mother-in-law but she doesn’t have a license. Now my younger sister, she drives and is that STUPID.

Thanks for the laugh.

This whole area for many many many Kilometers is chain linked off,this is why they can make overpasses and underpasses for wildlife. Mainly in Jasper do you get all the wildlife over the road, only rarely do you see wildlife on the road around these passes.

Reminds me of a sign my mother had hanging in her kitchen for most of my young life.

You are correct. I've driven the entire route from Kamloops to Jasper to Banff, but it wasn't during migration so we didn't see any elk. As I remember, those "ungulate-proof" fences are about 10 feet high, too.
