Human Wildlife Conflict in general, and Human Elephant Conflict in particular, have visible direct impacts (destruction of crops, injuries…) but hidden indirect costs (also called opportunity costs), such as the fear of encountering wild animals that can lead to poor school attendance for example, also have tremendous impact on populations living alongside wildlife. This paper illustrates a way to address these indirect costs. #humanwildlifeconflict #HWC #humanelephantconflict #coexistence #HEC

Great read ! illegal construction is one of the biggest problems. There should be more emphasis on urban planning and sustainable development. How can we contribute from our individual level ? - Stay informed about local environmental laws and regulations. - Be aware of ongoing development projects in your community. - Raise awareness about the importance of preserving natural habitats among your neighbors, friends, and community. - Engage in discussions and advocate for sustainable development practices. Report Violations: - Report any illegal construction or habitat destruction to local authorities, such as municipal bodies, environmental agencies, or forest departments. - Use local helplines or online platforms established for reporting environmental violations. - Attend local government meetings and voice your concerns about unauthorized construction or development projects. - Establish connections with local authorities responsible for environmental protection. Support Environmental NGOs: - Volunteer or support local environmental NGOs that work towards habitat preservation and wildlife conservation.

🌊 **Marine Marvel: The Pygmy Seahorse** 🌊 Did you know that pygmy seahorses are masters of disguise and commitment? These tiny marvels of the ocean spend their entire lives on a single sea fan, moving only within a plate-sized area. Their extraordinary camouflage abilities not only protect them from predators but also highlight the intricate beauty and complexity of marine ecosystems. 🐠✨ This incredible adaptation serves as a reminder of the diverse and delicate life forms that inhabit our oceans. Preserving these underwater wonders is crucial for maintaining the balance and health of our planet's ecosystems. 🌍💙 #MarineBiology #OceanConservation #WildlifeWonder #NatureLovers #Sustainability

TOPIC- leopards are the ultimate survivor.can they endure these growing challenges ? 1. According to assessment by world leading scientific authority on global extinction 2. Leopard population declined by more than 30% over last 22 years 3. Extinct in 26 countries this data is given by IUCN and listed leopard in red list 4. In past , leopard lived in 62 nations across africa and asia 5. Lived in every geographical area like sea level to 17000 feet forest 6. Widest geographic range of any big cat 7. Now there population dramatically reduced 8. Reason is presecution of increased human population 9. People made assumption ..because leopard are adaptable where most wild cats won't 10. This assumption is wrong by andrew stein 11. He says, changes occurs ..increased in unbalanced ecosystem ..reason for leopards extinction 12. But emphasize..informed and targeted conservation works.

For most of our history, we have viewed ourselves as a “divine species,” considering ourselves as the owners or administrators of nature. But today, we finally understand that we are just another species, one that lives according to the law of carrying capacity and planetary limits, like every other species. As our population exceeds its carrying capacity, we not only take from each other but also from future generations and other species’ basic living requirements, impacting the natural life that sustains us. When populations increase, their distribution range also increases. This is the case for all mammal species. When we talk about marine mammals like sea lions having fewer places to rest peacefully with their calves, and when new beaches are colonized by humans, encroaching on resting areas of birds, we are talking about the expansion of human presence.
