An Elephant Underpass

An underpass that has been constructed under a busy Kenyan highway provides a corridor that allows isolated elephants to move freely between areas.  Previously the elephants would face fences, cropland, traffic, and more - leading to conflict with humans.  The underpass is designed to re-create the historic migration routes of northern Kenyan elephant herds.
