Mitigating Human Animal Conflict Through Resilient Urban Planning

Abstract Human-animal conflict (HAC) is a pressing issue exacerbated by urban expansion and habitat fragmentation. This research aims to explore strategies for mitigating HAC through resilient urban planning, focusing on creating harmonious coexistence between human settlements and wildlife. By examining case studies from various regions and employing innovative urban design techniques, this study proposes a multifaceted approach to address HAC. The first aspect of the study involves preventing animals from entering urban areas through the establishment of effective wildlife corridors, smart fencing, and the use of advanced technologies such as drones and satellite tracking. These measures ensure that wildlife can move safely between habitats without encroaching on human settlements. The second aspect addresses the management of situations where animals enter urban areas despite preventive measures. This includes the development of rapid response teams, the implementation of community education programs, and the use of non-lethal deterrents to safely guide animals back to their natural habitats. The third aspect focuses on facilitating the safe return of animals to their habitats. This involves designing urban spaces with natural buffers and green belts that direct animals away from densely populated areas and towards safe exit routes. Additionally, the use of augmented reality (AR) interfaces can aid in real-time monitoring and management of wildlife movements.
