    Telemetry based tiger corridors of Vidarbha Landscape, Maharashtra India
    (Wildlife Institute of India, Dehradun, 2021) Habib, Bilal; Nigam, P.; Mondal, I.; Hussain, Z.; Ghaskadbi, P.; Govekar, R.S.; Praveen, N.R.; Banerjee, J.; Ramanujam, R.M.; Ramagaonkar, J.
    The Vidarbha Landscape (VL) is very important as it harbours a population of about 331 tigers and forms the connecting link between the central and southern Indian tiger populations. It plays a pivotal role in exchange of individuals and thereby facilitates gene flow between these two populations increasing the viability of tiger populations in India. There are 8 protected areas or wildlife divisions where these tigers live, but these refuges are scattered like islands in a sea of human dominated landscape. Therefore, knowing the locations of tiger movement corridors and probable areas of human tiger conflict is especially important for a wildlife manager.
