Tackling the man-wild animal conflicts becomes a challenging task in the absence of proper data and conflict mapping, Chief Forest Veterinary Surgeon Arun Zacharia has said.
“Without proper studies and data it is difficult to chalk out mitigation strategies to handle man-animal conflict. We don’t have much research to refer to on the issue,” Dr. Zacharia noted.
Mitigation strategies vary with each animal at different environments and situations, he said.
