Human-Wildlife Conflicts in a Changing Climate

Abstract: Climate change is altering ecosystems worldwide, leading to complex interactions between wildlife and human populations. Wild animals and humans have increasingly led to conflicts and attacking humans becoming more prevalent. We seek to deepen our understanding of the root causes of human-animal conflict in the context of climate change and explore innovative approaches to fostering harmonious relationships between humans and wildlife in a changing environment. This study highlights the impacts of climate change on human-wildlife interactions, explores the underlying drivers of conflict and evaluates current strategies for conflict mitigation. Through this research, we aim to raise awareness of the urgent need for collaborative and proactive measures to address human-animal conflict in the era of climate change. We can strive towards a more sustainable and resilient future for all species by promoting coexistence strategies that prioritize the needs of both humans and animals.
