As India’s population continues to grow, the nation faces an escalating challenge of managing the increasing overlap between human populations and wildlife. A recent study published in Science Advances reveals that by 2070, this overlap will intensify across more than half of Earth’s terrestrial surface, driven primarily by human population growth rather than changes in wildlife distributions due to climate change. In India, where both human and wildlife populations are dense, this trend will present a significant conservation challenge that calls for strategic planning and targeted interventions.
