• Poster presented at the International Conference on Ecology and Transportation in 2015. Research is an investigation into the effectiveness of three different types of wildlife passages along Highway 175 in northern Quebec for small and medium sized mammals using infrared cameras. Two research questions were addressed: (1) Do environmental and structural characteristics explain differences in crossing success across passage types?; and (2) Does the frequency of passageway usage differ by species?
