Well on the high way lanes are close together so if you stop or try to move chances are you will hit another car, I think some higher fences should be put up in some areas ... humans do destroy this beautiful earth but sometimes mistakes do indeed happen.

Yes...I would agree with that.
Nobody likes to see animals die on the road, but really.....if steering around an animal that has run onto the road actually puts yourself and other people in danger, then you have to just keep going and hit the animal....right ????
We have much roadkill here in Australia, and it doesn't really matter if the driver is speeding or not....especially on country roads...the amount of kangaroos, wombats, possums, Tasmanian devils etc that are hit on a daily basis here is horrific. They simply run across the road when they feel like it.
I have hit heaps of kangaroos on country roads, my utility is fitted with bull bars on the front specifically for the purpose of not damaging my vehicle on impact.

If only more animals could be like our nabour squirel,

He is pure black and very smart lol, he waits till the traffic is gone then crosses lol.

Yes but every chance we get to avoid hitting an animal is one we should make, my grandpa seen a budgie flying on the road, he waved at the lady comming towards it (There was NO traffic just a little street) and she just wen't right over the little bird making it become part of the road ..

There's also those other idiots who think it's fun to try and hit rabbits ect ...
