Road-Killed Animals as Resources for Ecological Studies.
Adams, Clark E.
American Biology Teacher, v45 n5 p256-61 Sep 1983
Summarizes 19 literature sources identifying road-killed vertebrates and frequency of kill by numbers. Examples of how these animals can be incorporated into curricula (integrating biology, society, people, and values) are given, followed by an illustrated example of how a road-killed raccoon's skull demonstrated a human/wildlife interaction prior to the lethal event.
