India, Nepal and Bhutan have come forward together for a new initiative that strives to form a regional cooperation in the Kanchenjunga Landscape (KL).<\/p>\n
Towards this end, the three sides have initiated a regional dialogue in Siliguri with an aim to promote human-wildlife interface in KL, under the aegis of the Directorate of Forest, Government of West Bengal and International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD).<\/p>\n
The new initiative was set in the background of growing human-wildlife conflict, increasing wildlife-related crimes and harm to endangered species, as a means to address concerns and strengthen conservation mechanism.<\/p>\n
