Wildlife Mitigation Measures

Abhijeet Maheshwar Joshi

Abstract: The aim of this Report is to reduce accidents between stray animals and vehicles. I have been noticed that incident and accident involving animals are gradually increasing over many years, collected data from the past few years for the causes of accident and suggested the methods and reviews to decrease the percentage of the death ratio of the domestic and non - domestic animals which has been taken from the research and foreign countries implements and proposed. There has been an upsurge in the incidence of automobile accidents involving both domestic and wild animals. The number of animal - related accidents has been proven to be proportional to the season of the year. Most of these mishaps occur in May. The seasonal variations in animal shelters can explain this. The second highest frequency of incidents occurs in October and November, when animals begin to migrate to wintering habitats. Males are most vulnerable to dying beneath the wheels of vehicles during this time of year. Animal - vehicle accidents (AVAs) on Indian highways pose significant threats to both human safety and wildlife conservation efforts. This report presents a comprehensive overview of the prevailing scenario, contributing factors, and potential mitigation strategies concerning AVAs in India.
