Reducing conflict between people and wildlife � Ismailimail

Reducing conflict between people and wildlife � Ismailimail: "WWF and the Aga Khan Foundation’s (AKF) Coastal Rural Support Programme (CRSP) are working to identify practical solutions to combat this human/animal conflict. One method is to make a mixture of oil, used car greese, fresh elephant dung and crushed chili (piri piri), which is slathered on ropes which are strung around fields of crops. When elephants run into these ropes the substance burns their skin and the pungent ordor repels them."
