Road-kills were counted from a car from July to June A total of monitoring runs were made before fence installation July to September and afterwards October to June Results were not tested for statistical significance. Fences were 0.

Littlewood, N. Synopses of Conservation Evidence Series. University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK. List of journals searched by synopsis. All the journals searched for all synopses. Thank you for considering submitting additional evidence about this intervention. Ideally we would like all submitted evidence to have been published in peer-reviewed literature. However, we do welcome evidence of any nature. Please be aware that given the volume of work we have we cannot guarantee a response to every submission.
This score is based on the direction and size of the effects reported in each study. There is some variation between actions, e.
The effectiveness score does not consider the quantity or quality of studies; a single, poorly designed study could generate a high effectiveness score. How certain can we be that the effectiveness score applies to all targets of the intervention e.
This score is based on the number, quality and coverage species, habitats, geographical locations of studies. Actions with high scores are supported by lots of well-designed studies with a broad coverage relative to the scope of the intervention. However, the definition of "lots" and "well-designed" will vary between interventions and synopses depending on the breadth of the subject.
The overall effectiveness category is determined using effectiveness, certainty and harms scores generated by a structured assessment process with multiple rounds of anonymous scoring and commenting a modified Delphi method. In this assessment, independent subject experts listed for each synopsis interpret the summarized evidence using standardised instructions. What Works in Conservation provides expert assessments of the effectiveness of actions, based on summarised evidence, in synopses.
Subjects covered so far include amphibians, birds, mammals, forests, peatland and control of freshwater invasive species. More are in progress. More about What Works in Conservation. An online, free to publish in, open-access journal publishing results from research and projects that test the effectiveness of conservation actions. Our blog contains the latest news and updates from the Conservation Evidence team, the Conservation Evidence Journal, and our global partners in evidence-based conservation.

Background information and definitions Wildlife barrier fencing aims to prevent animals from crossing roads. Study locations. Key messages Twelve studies evaluated the effects on mammals of installing barrier fencing along roads. Two before-and-after studies , in the USA, found that roadside fencing with one-way gates to allow escape from the road, reduced the number of collisions between vehicles and deer.
A study in the USA found that a 2. A controlled, before-and-after study in the USA found that barrier fencing with designated crossing points did not significantly reduce road deaths of mule deer.
A replicated, controlled, before-and-after study in Canada found that electric fences, along with an underpass beneath one highway , reduced moose-vehicle collisions. A review of fencing studies from USA, Canada and Sweden, found that longer fencing along roadsides led to a greater reduction of collisions between large mammals and cars than did shorter fence sections.
A replicated, controlled, before-and-after study in Canada found that electric fences reduced moose access to highways. Three studies two replicated , in the USA, found that higher fences 2.
