Clever animals cross road in hidden tunnel to avoid being flattened by traffic

Living by a busy road, these animals aren’t willing to take any chances when it comes to getting across safely.

Instead, a rabbit and a stoat are cleverly using an underground network of drains to make it to the other side. The cute animals scuttle from one side of the road to the other and pop out of drains in order to avoid being hit by traffic.



And a fluffy little owl also uses the same underground network as a home while waiting for its mother to bring food.

Amateur wildlife photographer Paul Bunyard captured the shots while driving on his way to work in Rugby, Warwickshire. The 38-year-old was able to grab a quick photo of the stoat before it popped back into the drain.
