Tamanna Kalam

I am a wildlife conservationist from India and I study the drivers, patterns, and impacts of human-wildlife conflict on both humans and wildlife.  

Over the years, I grew more interested in understanding how habitat loss influences wildlife distribution and human-wildlife conflict. For my PhD, I will be studying how tropical dry forests have changed in India since the 20th century and how this has affected megafauna distribution and human-wildlife conflict.
