Sandbox:Introduction

INTRODUCTION

The dynamics of the human-leopard conflict in Mumbai, India's financial capital, are complex and multidimensional. Despite being an urban environment, Mumbai has a larger leopard population than other rural areas primarily because of the surplus amount of domestic animals as prey (Surve et al.2022). This highlights the extraordinary ability of leopards to co-exist in urban environments, displaying their adaptability and wide ecological niche. However, the increased development in  the urban landscape such as the construction of highways, may pose a significant threat towards habitats and population of the Leopard species( ). By understanding the interplay between human activities and leopard behavioral patterns,  we can accomplish mitigating conflicts and promoting a harmonized coexistence.
