Human Wildlife Conflict
The conflict that arises when human activities and wildlife populations intersect, leading to negative impacts on both parties involved. This can include instances of animals encroaching on human settlements, damaging property, and posing risks to human safety, as well as humans encroaching on wildlife habitats, leading to habitat destruction, displacement of species, and disruption of natural ecosystems. The conflict often stems from competition for resources such as food, water, and space, and can result in economic losses, biodiversity decline, and potential harm to both human and animal populations.
