Hazard Alert - Animal on Road
Could there please be some sort of function within Waze that could give the user the opportunity to report deceased animals along the road so that the competent entities could come and collect them? Or even for pets that were just run down for a vet to come or something? Could it be connected to automatically give the competent entities the location of the animal? It’s a win-win for everyone and it keeps our road safe. Also, for objects on the road, while I’m not sure what entity would be responsible for removing them, somehow also connect to the responsible entity so that it could be promptly removed as well?

Ability for users to report wild animals on road on roadside. With an auto removal after specified time period (30 Mins) but with the ability for users to confirm within that time period!
Having this alert to show drivers that there may still be a hazard ahead is a very big safety feature!

I have a Waze user in my area that is good about reporting animals (specifically Deer) on or near the roadway. I understand Waze disabled this feature for unknown reasons, I wish Waze would bring this feature back.

They actually removed this feature and made it voice reporting only/removed it for people who do not use voice reporting.
Very anmoying of them! They could have at least made that voluntary! -

Not sure why this was removed but living in a rural area this will be very useful
