      <image:title>Our Efforts - NEW Program and Planning Tool.</image:title>
      <image:caption>After years of planning, we are excited to announce two new and innovative ways which wildlife/ vehicle conflict can be identified and addressed across the state. The MWTP Planning Tool is intended to assist stakeholders in identifying areas of need to focus coordinated resources and expertise for further analysis and aids in developing project-level recommendations. The MWTP Project Program establishes an avenue for public-private partnerships to propose and implement wildlife accommodation projects across our state highways.  And, as always please reach out to MSWP if you have further questions and click on the link below to learn more about the planning tool and project program application process.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Efforts - Raising public awareness.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many of us have experienced a wildlife-vehicle collision or seen a dead animal on the side of the road. Our goal is to educate the public that there are solutions we can all support.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Efforts - Advocating for science-based policies.</image:title>
      <image:caption>We are working with decision-makers to advance policies that consider wildlife from the beginning in highway planning. We do that by identifying the most important stretches of highway for wildlife crossings, securing funding to implement those projects, and garnering community support for highway improvements.</image:caption>
