| Can Tigers Coexist with Humans? An interview by Peter Jackson with Dr. David Smith | |
| 1983 WWF Monthly Report: 681-684 | |
The setting up of tiger reserves has been successful in stabilising and even increasing tiger numbers in India and Nepal. But where human settlements and cultivation are close to park borders, problems arise if young tigers in search of new territory move out of the reserves and begin cattle-lifting, or even man-eating. In an interview with Peter Jackson, Dr James L. David Smith, a wildlife biologist who has been studying tigers in Nepal (see WWF Monthly Report, May 1982), suggests ways in which conflict between tigers and humans can be minimized. |
