Human - Tiger conflict is one of the most critical issues in tiger conservation and also a serious problem for human safety (attacks on humans and livestock. It thus requires a focus on effective mitigation measures. Two of these measures used in Nepal have been assessed: compensation payments and tiger removals.
In this study, authors made the following suggestions to improve these measures:
- In order to encourage community engagement, paying compensation payments quickly,
- Promoting an insurance scheme in the buffer zone,
- Better managing live-removed tigers, such as radio-tracking of wild released individuals,
- Targeting affected communities to set up awareness programs.
