Abstract

Conflict between wildlife and humans are increasing globally with the habitat destruction and the increase in the population of tigers, elephants and leopards in India. With the aim to develop a technology for safe handling of  wildlife – human conflicts and safe patrolling in the wilderness “Myvets Charitable Trust & Research Centre” developed “Wildlife Rescue Bike“. In most of the reported cases of leopard rescue during conflicts majority of forest officials gets injured and there are incidences wherein villagers also got injuried during the rescue operation while going near the leopards; as conflict creates fear in the mind of people and they counterreact by beating the wildlife to death or by killing them directly. New technologies will revolutionize the way we handle the wildlife–human conflicts and wildlife conservation, it can be used as a effective and powerful tool for wildlife conflicts mitigation worldwide. The device has been used in India in wildlife terrain and is very effective to provide safety to the forest officials & wildlife veterinarians during the leopard – human conflicts, night patrolling and during tranquilization of wild leopards & tigers for rescue.
