Staying Connected: Addressing the Impacts of Linear Intrusion on Wildlife in the Western Ghats

Respond to the effects of linear infrastructure (roads, railways, power lines, etc.) on wildlife and habitats within the Western Ghats. Evaluate the main impacts of linear infrastructure, and undertake pilot studies in the Mysore-Nilgiri Corridor to inform on-going discussions toward the development of comprehensive national guidelines on linear intrusions in natural areas. Develop site-specific mitigation plans for selected sites.
