WCT sources say that most animal deaths on roads go unrecorded

Thousands of road networks across the country cut through areas that form the natural habitat of wild animals. As a result, animal casualties are frequent in such regions, especially along the highways. In order to check the loss of wildlife, the NGO Wildlife Conservation Trust (WCT) has launched a mobile-based application, Roadkills, to collect data pertaining to accident-prone areas, so that the government can undertake remedial measures. Citizens can also contribute to the drive by uploading geotagged photos of injured animals on roads.
