Habitat loss and fragmentation due to human activities, such as deforestation, urbanization, and agriculture, are the leading cause of human-wildlife conflict.

Large carnivores, such as lions, tigers, bears, and wolves, are often involved in conflicts with humans due to their predatory behavior and potential for causing harm.

Human-wildlife conflict can result in loss of human life and property, loss of wildlife and biodiversity, and economic losses due to crop damage, livestock depredation, and tourism disruption.

Hunting and culling are generally not considered sustainable or effective solutions to mitigate human-wildlife conflict, as they can lead to population declines and disrupt ecological balance.

Coexistence in the context of human-wildlife interactions refers to the harmonious living between humans and wildlife, where both parties can coexist without significant conflict or harm.

The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) is an international agreement that specifically addresses the conservation of biodiversity and sustainable use of natural resources.

Zoning and land use planning are used to adapt human activities and land use to reduce conflicts with wildlife by designating areas for different purposes, such as wildlife habitat, agriculture, and human settlements.

Electric fences, guard dogs, and motion-activated sprinklers are all examples of non-lethal methods used to deter wildlife from approaching human settlements.

Rewilding is the process of reintroducing a species to an area where it once existed, typically with the aim of restoring ecological balance and biodiversity.

Reduced economic losses is not a potential benefit of human-wildlife coexistence, as conflicts can still result in economic losses due to crop damage, livestock depredation, and tourism disruption.

Synanthropy is the process of wildlife adapting to human-modified environments, often involving changes in behavior, diet, and habitat use.

All of the options are examples of successful human-wildlife coexistence initiatives, demonstrating the potential for harmonious living between humans and wildlife.

Human-wildlife conflict management is the process of managing human-wildlife interactions to minimize conflicts and promote coexistence.

Minimizing human-wildlife interactions is not a key principle of human-wildlife coexistence, as some level of interaction is often necessary for coexistence to be achieved.

Ecological restoration is the process of restoring degraded ecosystems to their natural state, often involving the reintroduction of native species and the removal of invasive species.
