Governments across North America keep building and expanding roads. This can have deadly consequences for animals but, potentially, drivers too. One way to manage these risks is by building ecopassages, things that help animals get around barriers humans create. This animal overpass near Burwash, Ont. is the first and—for now—only one of its kind in Ontario.

In this episode of Living History, we’ll get a close look at the Highway 69 animal bridge, learn about the impact it’s been having and see other ecopassage styles that you might never notice.
