Canopy crossing, "park road" (estrada-parque) Capelinha-Mauá (RJ-163), near Resende, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Note that one side of the structure connects to the ground level at the road cut. Only one side of the structure is at actual canopy level. Furthermore, ropes or cables would be needed to provide connectivity for arboreal mammals to the surrounding trees.
