We are in the middle of a program name change from the Wildlife-Vehicle Accident Prevention Program to the Wildlife Collision Prevention Program. You may see both names on the website, and other communications material, as the new name becomes integrated into our business.
The new logo for the Wildlife Collision Prevention Program conveys the imminent danger that is present when a deer or other animal moves unexpectedly in front of your vehicle, while the sweeping line to the left of the vehicle implies a curving road surface, and the dangers of an uncontrolled swerve.
Please contact the Wildlife Collision Prevention Program for copies of the electronic files for the new logo.
Use of the word “collision” rather than “accident” reflects our belief that collisions with wildlife are not just random and unforeseen encounters, and that there are steps that drivers can take that enable them to better anticipate and avoid wildlife hazards on the road.
