Article: As days get shorter drivers need to slow down
BC SPCA Wild ARC reports notable increase of animal-vehicle collisions in last decade
Kiernan Green News Staff
As the curtain starts falling on summer and daylight begins to shift, staff at the regional wildlife centre remind Greater Victoria residents to be mindful of animals who make their home in the vast environment surrounding motorways.
Last year saw about 375 animals struck and killed by vehicles throughout Greater Victoria, said Wallice Moore Reid, senior wildlife rehabilitator at the B.C. SPCA Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre (ARC) in Metchosin. The result of that death toll, she said, was an equal number of orphaned animals encountered and brought to the centre throughout 2020.
The rise of animals admitted as the result of vehicle collisions (14 per cent of total admissions in 2020, up from 10 per cent in 2018) is thanks in part to human waste and inattentive driving, Moore Reid said.
“Reducing speed, of course, can help protect you as well as your vehicle” from common collisions with bucks or fawns, she said. Those are most common on motorways and large bends where drivers don’t consider slowing, and during dusk or dawn; peak times for animal movement which fluctuate as the days get shorter for autumn.
Less known but equally hazardous is the habit of throwing trash or food waste out of a car window, Moore Reid said. The waste attracts rodents onto the road, who in turn become the fixation of birds of prey. Raptors as smart as eagles don’t look both ways before swooping on a chipmunk and are too often admitted to Wild ARC when failing to do so, if not killed.
“We see several species that are threatened or of special concern admitted due to vehicle collisions,” said Moore Reid. “They include barn swallows, peregrine falcons, great blue herons, olive-sided flycatchers, purple martins, band-tailed pigeons, and common nighthawks to name a few.”
Wild ARC – a non-profit centre funded primarily through donations – accepts injured or orphaned animals from 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. daily, Moore Reid said.
