Abstract
Over a period of time, Human Population pressure has resulted in conversion of forest wildlife habitat into tea estates, tea factories and change in the land use is visualized. This is evident in reduction of dense forest area where more number of wild lives has their food, shelter, breeding and water requirements. There were so many streams, pools, source of river and tributaries. Currently they were extinct from the scene and animals for want of food, water and other requirements started migrating to the farm environment or near to the water hole. During these journeys, human and the animal conflicts become visualized resulted in more number of deaths and injuries. On an average, every year two human deaths and many injuries are occurring. For that the forest department has paid 123 lakhs of Rupees as compensation for affected victims. The affected individuals are migrated personnel to the forest floor for employment and other purposes. Whereas, the tribes were not affected. The main reason is the people migrate to forest floor are not aware on the animal behavior, movement and hence awareness creation exercise found to be the principal strategy to the human to avoid the conflicts.
