This reminds me a bit of Alligator Alley in Florida. Fences work much better with Alligators, however.

Familiar

Were I live, Canadian geese lead their chicks through roads all of the time. Contralya 01:35, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Just how do 'tadpoles' walk on dry land?

Fishy

Tadpoles have no legs and can't breath out of water.

So unless the road was flooded... Sounds fishy to me.

they said toadlets not tadpoles

tunnels under the road

I dont remember where but they make wildlife tunnels under roads

Tadpoles??

Sorry but the main article quite clearly says 'tadpoles' in several places.

i.e. 'According to the Canadian Press, the recent tadpoles also' and 'so the tadpoles jump' and 'The tadpoles were described as brownish'.

Perhaps you need to read it again?

Wrong terms

Tadpoles can't exist out of water so the writer of this article is very mistaken or they need to change the word tadpole for toadlet (young toad). --Quatermass 09:06, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
