Synopsis

India faces a serious challenge today towards long-term in-situ conservation of the elephant population. This is a timely publication as it explains issues related to elephant depredation in human enclaves and the fragmentation of elephant landscapes across the elephant range. The field managers and policymakers would benefit from the studies on alternative cropping patterns as a mitigation strategy in and around the forests where the interspersion ratio of forests and crop lands is a major cause of elephant depredation. The book would be extremely useful for field managers and stakeholders from different departments working in the elephant landscapes. The challenge of increasing linear infrastructure through forest landscapes is a serious one. The book deals at length with the mitigation strategy to be adopted in linear projects like national highways, railways, irrigation projects, transmission lines, etc. These strategies can be incorporated into the project right at the inception stage so as to reduce the impact on wildlife. The designs of different mitigations explained in the book can be suitably changed to different landscapes in the country.
