Human And Wildlife Conflict
A deadly conflict is under way between India’s growing population and its wildlife confined to ever-shrinking forests and grasslands. Data shows that about one person has been killed on average every day for the past three years by roaming tigers or rampaging elephants. Big cats attack and kill livestock, hunt economically important prey and can kill or injure people or be perceived as a threat to human safety. These conflicts may motivate humans to try to manage predators to lessen the damages.

Indian glaciers
The Earth's climate has changed throughout history. Because glaciers are so sensitive to temperature fluctuations and provide clues about the effects of global warming. Most of these climate changes are attributed to very small variations in Earth's orbit that change the amount of solar energy our planet receives. Over long periods, glacial response to climate change becomes obvious as glaciers retreat and, in some cases, disappears.
