Detailed explanation-1: -The SC-NBWL on 05th January 2021 has approved the advisory for management of Human-Wildlife Conflict (HWC) in the country.
Detailed explanation-2: -Wildlife can threaten people’s safety and livelihoods, which can lead to conflicts between groups of people over how to resolve the situation; experts call this ‘human-wildlife conflict’. Human-wildlife conflicts are becoming more frequent, serious and widespread as human populations grow and habitats are lost.
Detailed explanation-3: -One big challenge is the destruction of animal habitats due to encroachment of forest land, which is engendering man-animal conflicts, revenge killing of carnivore animals and poaching. Another challenge is roadkill, resulting in the deaths of many small wildlife animals.
Detailed explanation-4: -We identified four main human-wildlife conflict types: 1) attack on humans, 2) livestock attack, 3) crop raiding, 4) property damage, and 5) ‘other’ – all the other conflict types.
