The Indian Himalaya continues to face increasing anthropogenic stressors despite numerous conservation actions. Further, climate change has the potential to negatively affect this biodiversity rich region. To counteract the changing climatic variables, targeted education programmes could act as a strategy and assist in protecting the floral/faunal species requiring urgent intervention, and benefit communities and ecosystems at large.Full Text

Human-wildlife conflict is a conservation challenge facing scientists and policy-makers worldwide with an increasing demand for holistic resolution strategies. Conflict with wild animals has the potential to negatively affect the livelihood and well-being of communities and revengeful killing of the animals to safeguard personal interests. This is a worrying development, especially for threatened wild species if deemed as 'conflict species, as it can greatly hinder their protection and conservation especially in developing countries.Full Text

Transportation infrastructure is central to the functioning and development of human societies. However, the widespread network of transportation infrastructure worldwide has also altered natural landscapes drastically in the past century. These networks pervade far beyond any other human infrastructure, and pose multiple negative impacts to the natural elements of the landscapes they cut across1,2. Road networks worldwide have splintered previously undisturbed swathes of forests into nearly 600,000 patches, only 7% of which are larger than 100 km2 in size3, making movement across these patches challenging for wildlife. Road and traffic emissions such as noise, gaseous and liquid pollutants, and solid waste also cause disturbance and may result in avoidance of these forests by wildlife4.Full Text
