Fifteen elephant habitats have been identified in Orissa and all these habitats lie between 18 ° 50' and 22 ° 19' N latitude and 83 ° 05' and 86 ° 45' E longitude. By water-hole count (1999), Orissa's elephant population was estimated to be 1,827 covering a forest area of 11,167 km2. There were 2,044 elephants in Orissa in 1979. The causes of decline in elephant population are shifting cultivation, encroachment, poaching, mining, forest fire, scarcity of water during dry season, increase in human population, man-elephant conflict, mortality due to diseases, electrocution, legal and administrative inadequacies, etc. In this paper a network of elephant corridors has been suggested for conservation of their population on a long term basis.- Man and Wild Elephant Conflict in Orissa

Man and Wild Elephant conflict is as old as human civilization. With the increase in human population and fragmentation of Elephant habitats this is felt more frequent at present than ever before. In this paper crop raiding of Elephants and human deaths due to Elephants in Orissa have been discussed. Out of 275.8 ha of crop damaged during 1990.1991 and 1995-1996, paddy constituted over 200 ha. Next to paddy was Sugarcane covering about 20 ha and remaining 55 ha had crops like maize, ragi, coconut plantation etc. Similarly, human deaths due to attack by wild Elephants in Orissa were 74 and injury to 21 persons. The causes of man-wild Elephant conflict are encroachment of Elephant lands by human, conflict due to migration of Elephants, delicacy of crops and intoxication of Elephants due to brewed Rice and Mahua flower and shortage of water inside the forested area. For the resolution of man-wild Elephant conflict it is suggested to construct Elephant-proof barriers, removal of encroachments, especially on their corridors of migration, provision of water where scarcity of water occurs during summer, capture of rogue and troublesome Elephants, social security schemes against damages caused by Elephants, education of the interface people and ecotourism.- Male Vigour of Casuarina
