| Abstract: |
the rise globally, and is one of the significant
environmental problems in India.
In India, HWC manifests itself in several
ways, such as wildlife poaching, retaliatory
killing of/injury to wildlife species,
crop raiding and livestock predation by
wildlife species, injury to humans or
human mortality, and destruction of
property, houses and buildings by wildlife.
Of these, wildlife conflict in agropastoral
contexts has been a subject of
debate and great concern nationally, not
only for its impact on the farmers, but
also for the consequences regarding
wildlife conflict. In India, HWC involves
multiple stakeholders and multitudinous
socio-cultural and environmental issues.
Hence any study on this topic must encompass
a multi-disciplinary effort that
provides a holistic understanding of the
history of wildlife, crop and livestock
raiding, its nature and consequences and
discuss various techniques that have been
used or recommended to mitigate the effects
of this crisis. |
