Elephant alert! AI warning systems aim to avoid deadly clashes
India is deploying AI-powered warning systems to prevent deadly conflicts between humans and Asian elephants, which kill approximately 3,000 people annually despite 60% of the world's wild Asian elephant population residing in the country. The technology aims to address a critical conservation challenge where 80% of elephant habitat exists outside protected areas, creating frequent dangerous encounters.
