This is not only immoral — it's also illegal. Killing federally protected animals is a direct violation of the Endangered Species Act.
BNSF is a major railroad company in the U.S., and its business operates in an important habitat for grizzly bears, deep inside the state of Montana. Its tracks cut through or near approximately 206 miles of grizzly bear habitat in the lower 48 states, including in specific key recovery areas.
Railroad companies, including BNSF, could take a wide variety of actions to reduce the risk of grizzlies and other animals dying on their tracks. So why isn't BNSF taking these steps?
Wildlife don't understand what trains or train tracks are. All they know is that these are their lands to roam as they live life and pursue food, mating, and natural migration cycles.
It's our responsibility, as humans who drive fast-paced machines through wild areas, to keep endangered wildlife safe.
