High gas prices good for wildlife

Randy Udall presents this simple idea.

Gas prices rising ever higher are going to further cut down travel across the vast Western states.

With fewer cars on the roads, that makes it easier for wildlife to make longer treks.

Anecdotal proof?

A wolverine at the California side of Lake Tahoe, the first wolverine spotted in the Golden State in 85 years. A mountain lion in Chicago, of all places.
