Conservationist Wins Global Prize for Human-Wildlife Coexistence Efforts

Imagine a world where people and animals live together, but sometimes, they clash.

This is happening in India, where elephants and people are often in conflict.

Krithi Karanth and the Centre for Wildlife Studies are trying to help.

They work with local communities to reduce the problems caused by these conflicts, like crop damage and injuries.

They've created programs to support farmers, educate children, and find solutions that benefit both people and animals.

For her work, Krithi Karanth received a global award to help her efforts in creating a better balance between humans and wildlife.
