Colorado Officials Warn of Wildlife Danger as Clocks Fall Back

Original: Colorado officials urge caution as end of daylight saving time coincides with uptick in wildlife activity

Colorado officials are urging drivers and residents to be extra cautious as the end of daylight saving time coincides with a seasonal uptick in wildlife activity. With evening darkness arriving earlier, animals such as deer and elk are more active at dusk, increasing the risk of collisions on roads. Authorities are advising motorists to slow down, stay alert during low-light hours, and watch for animals near highways across the state.

Why now: The clocks changed recently, and darker evening commutes combined with fall wildlife migration raise the risk of animal-vehicle collisions.
