Wildlife cameras installed on Washington's I-90 since 2014 have recorded a significant number of animal crossings. By July 2026, the Snoqualmie Pass East overcrossing alone logged its 10,000th crossing, contributing to nearly 40,000 crossings across all 12 structures.
This initiative highlights the effectiveness of wildlife crossings in reducing animal fatalities on highways. The data indicates that animals are increasingly opting for these safe passages rather than risking dangerous highway crossings, showcasing a successful conservation effort.
Looking ahead, continued monitoring of these crossings will be essential to assess their long-term impact on wildlife behavior and highway safety. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
