AI cameras, lights to be installed in STR to combat human-animal conflict

New Indian Express  

BARIPADA: Artificial Intelligence cameras and lights will soon be installed in Similipal Tiger Reserve to reduce man-animal conflicts especially in Betnoti and Rasgovindpur ranges from where most such cases are reported. Regional chief conservator of forest and field director of STR, Prakash Chand Gogineni told The New Indian Express that most cases of man-animal conflicts have been reported from Betnoti and Rasgovindpur ranges within the Baripada territorial division. As the two ranges are on the Odisha-West Bengal and Jharkhand border, elephants from both the neighbouring states often sneak into the district. To check the menace, it has been decided to install the AI cameras and lights at vulnerable places and elephants’ entry points to provide advance early warning to forest personnel.
