Sierra Nevada local here. There are very few events in my life that have been more emotional than the time I saw a mountain lion dead on the side of I80. I don't agree with the article's scare tactics, but I'm all for taking some action. I've always felt that tunneling (or even just covering) the freeways would be an obvious win for the Sierras. It would not only allow for wildlife to safely exist, but also would save the cost of snow removal and protect the freeways from the extreme thaw-freeze cycles and trucks with chains that force the freeway to be resurfaced every few years.
