How Highway Crossings Are Saving the American Lion

You may know the American Lion by one of its 83 names, but whether you call it a puma, mountain lion, or catamount, it’s time to start protecting these important creatures. And that starts in—of all places—our highways!

Imagine if you had to cross 12 lanes of LA traffic on foot to go on a date? Would you go? This is the case for one big cat, who risks life and limb on their prowl for love. But thankfully, there are folks devising ways to bridge this gap—literally—to help save this unique species!
