As per the information received from the State Government of Kerala, Human-Wildlife Conflicts has been declared as a “State- Specific Disaster” in Kerala vide GO(Ms.) No. 4/2024/DMD dated 07/03/2024 for effective management of mitigation activities with inter-departmental efforts. Accordingly, in 2024 itself, 271 Panchayaths / Municipalities in 12 Landscapes have been identified as Human-Wildlife Conflict areas. Among these Panchayaths/ Municipalities, 30 have been identified as HWC hotspots. The list of these 30 hotspots are given in the enclosed Statement. As per the information received from the state, three Rapid Response Teams have been deployed in Wayanad Lok Sabha Constituency to mitigate Human-Wildlife Conflicts in the area viz., Sulthan Bathery (Wayanad District), Mananthavady (Wayanad District) and Nilambur (Malappuram District). In addition to this, Satellite RRTs are also deployed at Kalpetta and Meppadi (Wayanad District). In Periya Range of North Wayanad Division, AI powered Perimeter Intrusion Detection System and Early Warning System (smart-fencing) 08.12.2025 453 has been installed on an experimental basis, which is found effective. The innovative system utilizes Distributed Acoustic Sensing technology, wherein an optical fiber network (stretched over 10 km) detects vibrations caused by moving wildlife. Drone and thermal camera based monitoring and early detection systems are also deployed in the forest areas, with special emphasis to the HWC hot-spots. To monitor wildlife crossing state borders and sharing information, and to effectively manage human-wildlife conflict situations, Inter-State Coordination Committee has been formed among the states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Minister level meetings and Secretary level meetings of the Inter- State Coordination Committee were conducted during 2024 and MoU for cooperation and information exchange has been signed between Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka on 10.03.2024 at Bandipur, Karnataka. Further, the Government has undertaken several key measures to address human–wildlife conflict.

(iii) A robust network of National Parks, Wildlife Sanctuaries, Conservation Reserves and Community Reserves has been established across the country for habitat protection under the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972. (iv) An advisory on dealing with human-wildlife conflict has been issued by the Ministry on 6th February, 2021. The Ministry has also issued Guidelines to States/UTs on 3rd June 2022 to manage Human Wildlife conflict. Species-specific mitigation guidelines for key conflict-prone species, as well as cross-cutting advisories on media engagement, occupational safety, crowd management and emergency response, have also been issued, along with a Field Manual on Human–Elephant Conflict Management and Guidelines on eco-friendly measures for linear infrastructure. (v) Focused conservation support is provided for 24 critically endangered species under the Species Recovery Programme under the scheme ‘Development of Wildlife Habitats’. (vi) Financial assistance is extended to States/UTs under the schemes ‘Development of Wildlife Habitats’ and ‘Project Tiger and Elephant’ for conflict mitigation measures such as early warning systems, physical barriers, compensation for loss of life, livestock and crops, and deployment of Rapid Response Teams. The Ministry enhanced ex- gratia relief for death or permanent incapacitation from ₹5 lakh to ₹10 lakh in December 2023, with other compensation norms for injuries and 08.12.2025 455 property/crop damage as per State guidelines. Advanced technologies including radio-collaring, digital sensor walls and e-surveillance are increasingly used in conflict mitigation. (vii) The Ministry also supports States in awareness generation, training and capacity-building programmes, and Forest Departments work closely with local communities for vigilance, early alerts and public sensitization. A Centre of Excellence for Human–Wildlife Conflict Management has been established at SACON, Coimbatore.
