Traffic accidents caused by motor vehicles colliding with wildlife are a global phenomenon. These accidents often involve different animal species, including reindeer, deer, kangaroos, and camels. Compared to other types of animal collisions with vehicles, camel accidents are particularly dangerous due to the heavy weight, high center of gravity, and the size and height of the camel. Safeguarding traffic from the dangers of collisions with camels encompasses a wide range of solutions, including road safety, animal detection, warning drivers, and so on. This study has attempted to prioritize various safety solutions to provide safe sections for camels to cross the road based on the behavioral characteristics of this animal. This study, while examining and introducing these measures in different areas, analyzes the most appropriate ones in relation to the country's conditions in terms of geography, natural resources, environment, livestock facilities, and road and traffic characteristics, using research methods. Therefore, in the analytical process of this research, road safety options and the target user (camel animal) are analyzed based on the criteria and indicators defined by inferential research methods based on the MDMA multi-criteria analysis method of fuzzy TOPSIS. From the results of this research, it is estimated that among the road and non-road solutions presented, the option of using traffic control equipment, using traffic lights to control camel crossing, and lighting camel collision points are the proposed priorities for making suburban routes safe based on four types of economic, traffic, technical, and environmental criteria.
