25 25 Major Reporting Challenges animals die outside the highway right-of of-way, animal remains are removed by natural predators or scavengers, animal remains are obscured by snow, ice, vegetation, or roadside debris, errors and omissions in reporting accident locations and/or species type, and random and systematic errors and omissions in reporting and data processing.

29 29 Uses of WARS Data 1. quantify the magnitude of wildlife mortality by species; 2. identify accident-prone locations and accident trends; 3. direct accident mitigation efforts (such as wildlife exclusion fencing and crossing structures) to problem locations; 4. evaluate the effectiveness of accident mitigation techniques; 5. develop species-specific accident risk profiles for highway corridors; 6. support cost-benefit and cost-effectiveness analysis of both existing and planned mitigation initiatives; and 7. establish policies and strategies for accident issues and mitigation initiatives.
