The Wildlife Collision Prevention Program (WCPP) was formed in 2001, as a partnership between the British Columbia Conservation Foundation (BCCF) and the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC), in response to the increasing number and severity of wildlife vehicle collisions in BC. WCPP is administered by the BCCF, with funding and support from government agencies, crown corporations, and both public and private organizations.

The intention of the WCPP is to make BC's highways safer for both people and wildlife. A major focus of the WCPP is to provide education and awareness for motorists on wildlife vehicle collision prevention.
