Humans and wildlife conflicts (HWCs) occur when their respective requirements and behaviors clash, as humans and wildlife coexist in shared ecosystems and utilize common resources.The HWCs have been occurring in the form of livestock and crop destruction, and property damage.
HWCs have increased as a result of changes in land usage, encroachment, fragmentation, habitat loss, and habitat restoration efforts (undertaken to meet the surging needs of the expanding human population).The cases of HWC rises with human settlements close to protected areas and higher wildlife population densities within the area.
The loss of animals and human lives by wildlife, as well as the destruction of crops, illustrates the social and economic costs that impact livelihoods and trigger poverty, which may ultimately prompt people to take appropriate conservation measures.HWCs also worsen the psychological well-being, health, livelihoods, and food security of households; these effects can be classified as direct costs, indirect costs, or opportunity costs.
The consequences of HWCs are more intense in economies where agriculture and animal farming play a significant role in generating income. Nevertheless, HWCs are unavoidable because agriculture farming is a crucial component of community subsistence. Therefore, it is necessary to address the concerns of farmers by creating and implementing various conflict management methods. As a result, wildlife managers, researchers, and policymakers must collaborate to develop an effective conservation management approach utilizing smart animal traps, which satisfies both wildlife conservation needs and community demands. These factors boost the demand for smart animal traps, thereby driving the market growth.
Vendors in the smart animal trap market can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets by offering products with new features and technologies. This factor is likely to drive the Europe smart animal trap market at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
