About this app

The Utah Roadkill Reporter is a smartphone-based system for reporting animals involved in vehicle collisions. The app collects information on carcass location, species, gender, age class of the animal, and photo documentation. Submissions are live-fed into a database that notifies Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) contractors and Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) employees of animal reports by using GIS to collect additional information on highway and management regions. The data collected through this app will allow the UDWR and the UDOT to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions and make highways safer for drivers and wildlife.

I have reported a deceased deer, with precise location, and pictures, on several occasions over the past 8 weeks. It has yet to be removed. If the intended purpose is to assist with the identification and location of roadkill, what is the point of no action is taken? I understand the theories of constraint, staffing, resources, etc - but this app shouldn't have been launched without those in place. It's otherwise a great concept - too bad it sours users that actually care to contribute.

We're sorry that this animal hasn't been picked up yet. There are some locations in the state where roadkill is removed regularly and other areas where it isn't feasible to pick up every animal that is reported. Please contact our nearest regional office if you have concerns about an animal that needs to be picked up.

So many people had issues registering, but that was some time ago. I just heard about the app. Which is too bad because I travel the 15 at least a couple of times a week between Salt Lake and st. George. Biggest complaints people saying roadkill hasn't been picked up. Triggered because making a report pop up says this was sent to have animal removed. But I think more importantly getting all of these reports in will give Great information on what animals are where and crossing freeways patterns

I am unable to register for the app due to some issues with the organization selection, but received a quick email response that this issue should be fixed in January. Hopefully it'll work out!
