Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Delaware, 2017.
Road networks play a significant role in shaping the ecological environment. Many roads were built before the rise and spread of ecological preservation through society. Some ill-considered road projects act as barriers to fauna movement. WVCs occur when animals attempt to cross roads to reach different habitat patches. Many animals in human-dominated landscapes are exposed to a high risk of WVC. However, despite high occurrence rates, WVC mitigation measures have not been implemented widely. There seems to be a consensus of opinion that in most cases WVCs do not demand immediate action because they do not impose significant impacts on the total populations of species, and a species often found killed on roads may simply reflect the presence of large thriving populations. There is a long-standing method to identify the alarm threshold for WVCs---the proportion rather than the total number of a population killed in WVCs is used as an indicator. WVCs that involve medium- and small-size animals get even less attention because they do not lead to high economic and human health costs. This opinion discourages efforts toward WVC mitigation. This dissertation explores solutions for WVC by focusing on the underlying ideology of urban planning. The prevailing anthropocentric ideology is challenged by deep ecology and is proposed as a complementary approach to conventional economic analyses used by urban planners. This complementary approach addresses the deficiency of current decision-making processes in urban planning. Deep ecology presents a new scenario to develop WVC mitigation strategy. The premise of this research is that planning departments could and should play leading roles in mitigating WVCs. Every stage of WVC mitigation---planning, designing, constructing, and maintaining---requires interdisciplinary collaboration. Political ecology encourages an integration of politics and environmental science. Urban development has a 'co-produced' social and ecological change with a distinctive distribution of effects on and in the natural and social worlds (Byrne et al., 2002). Planners can be especially creative in combining procedural and substantive skills from once-separated disciplines and, thus, become leaders in the battle against WVCs. In addition, only the planning department through its regulatory powers, has the ability to enact standard rules to ensure that the benefits of non-human life will not be ignored. Illuminated by deep ecology, this dissertation offers a new perspective to examine WVCs---all life forms should be examined in terms of what is ethically right instead of what is socio-economically manageable. Deep ecologists have been characterized as 'questing for ways to liberate and cultivate the ecological consciousness' (Devall, 2015, p. 317). They criticize the dominant anthropocentric paradigm and suggest alternative visions of man-in-nature. This research offers initial efforts in this direction.

Road networks play a significant role in shaping the ecological environment. Many roads were built before the rise and spread of ecological preservation through society. Some ill-considered road projects act as barriers to fauna movement. WVCs occur when animals attempt to cross roads to reach different habitat patches.
