On June 5, 2026, Kerala's Forest Minister Shibu Baby John unveiled a comprehensive 100-day action plan aimed at tackling the rising human-wildlife conflict in the state. The initiative includes the installation of 100 km of new solar fencing to enhance the existing 2,000 km along forest borders. Over the next five years, an additional 1,900 km will be constructed. The plan also features the establishment of 25 satellite Rapid Response Teams (RRTs) equipped with modern vehicles and tranquilising equipment to respond to wildlife emergencies. A vista clearance programme will clear 100 km of undergrowth along forest routes, while drone squads will monitor wildlife movements. Furthermore, an AI technology-driven warning system will be implemented to track animal movements in real-time. The government aims to address public concerns regarding animal overpopulation by assessing the carrying capacity of forests and conducting a census of wild boars and bonnet macaques. Additionally, a campaign to eliminate wild boars threatening human safety will be launched, possibly increasing the honorarium for shooters.
