Kerala Government Advances Measures to Mitigate Human-Wildlife Conflict
Kerala Forest Minister Shibu Baby John led a joint meeting with ministers and officials to address human-wildlife conflict by promoting farming practices less attractive to wild animals and expediting digital surveys to demarcate forest-bordering habitation. The Agriculture Department will assess crop losses and support insurance and compensation efforts. The government allocated funds for conflict prevention, including solar fencing and night patrols. Relief has been provided to victims of recent wildlife attacks, with further support planned. Coordination among departments aims to enhance local monitoring and issue necessary certificates for residents.
