This is a very cool! I wish something slightly similar could be done to eliminate road kill. One idea I've thought of to eliminate roadkill/keep them in the woods is to have some type of high pitched sonar attached to the outside of your car. You turn it on and or it activates itself based on location. Animals would hear it coming from a quarter mile away and run in it's opposite direction. HA that's probably not the greatest solution, but road kill is costly and unpleasant. It would be neat to see someone come up with a good solution!

They actually have car whistlers that you can attach to your hood that are supposed to deter wildlife.

  I've put them on plenty of cars, they only seem to catch bugs which plug the holes up. The electronic ones at least keep making noise, but there's still no telling if they actually help. I guess it's worth a shot, but I never expect much from them.

  These should be in rental cars. I think I've never seen as many dead animals next to the road as in West Australia. Glad I didn't hit one in 4 weeks.

Maybe this isn't a bad idea after all. I guess I can't tell what is a good idea or not. I mean my team & I just created a web app that plays, pauses & stops audio in sync across multiple devices (flash mob anyone), but hmm we might be working on the wrong idea. http://SpeakerBlast.com http://SpeakerBlast.com - Blast audio in sync across multiple devices. NO?
