Reasons Behind Human-Elephant Conflict
1. Habitat Loss:Deforestation and development force elephants into human areas.
2. Agricultural Expansion: Elephants raid crops, affecting farmers' livelihoods.
3. Water Scarcity:Elephants compete with humans for water resources.
4. Blocked Migration Paths: Human settlements block elephant paths, leading to encounters.
Human-elephant conflict requires habitat conservation, community engagement, and sustainable practices to promote coexistence.
