Human-wildlife interactions a challenge, but India’s coexistence-based management approach addressing them: Yadav

India’s Union environment minister Bhupender Yadav highlighted the nation’s “coexistence-based management” approach to tackle human-wildlife conflict amidst growing economies. He emphasized that conservation efforts extend beyond mere numbers, focusing on habitat expansion, connectivity, and multi-species protection, including tigers, lions, leopards, snow leopards, and cheetahs, with the International Big Cat Alliance poised to foster cross-border cooperation.
