Research - Land Use And Biodiversity

Destruction of natural habitat and its conversion for human use remains the principal cause of biodiversity loss. WildCRU explores ways of reducing human-wildlife conflict and balancing the needs of people and wild animals. The global nature of the biodiversity crisis is reflected in the broad scope of WildCRU's work, from saving endangered species to restoring farmland wildlife.
