We need to reduce roadkill


Signboard warning of wildlife crossing along the Jalan Bukit Beruntung/Shah Alam Highway.

I REFER to a recent incident in which an elephant was killed in an early morning crash with trailer at the 13th mile along Jalan Mersing–Kota Tinggi, Johor.

Initial investigations found that the incident happened when the driver of another car turned on its high beam headlights when he/she saw a herd of elephants crossing the road.
