California has begun the first phase of construction on two wildlife crossings near Joshua Tree National Park, designed to let mountain lions safely cross roads and reconnect fragmented habitat. The project aims to reduce vehicle collisions and support the cats' long-term survival, drawing attention as part of a broader push for wildlife infrastructure in the state.

Why now: The start of construction marks a concrete step in efforts to protect mountain lions from road deaths and habitat fragmentation.
