SOP TO MINIMISE HUMAN-TIGER CONFLICTS- INDIA



The National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) has instructed the PCCF/HOFF(s) and Chief Wildlife Wardens of all “Tiger Range States” to adhere to a clearly defined Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) while dealing with emergencies concerning tigers straying into human-dominated areas. The main purpose of the SOP is to ensure that straying tigers are handled in an appropriate way to avoid any harm to human being or tiger or livestock, which have become recurrent incidents in settled areas close to tiger habitats.
