I had the pleasure of speaking with wildlife researcher and human-wildlife conflict specialist, Mathen "Rajeev" Mathew, about the animals he studies that cause some of the most dramatic conflicts in India: Tigers, leopards and elephants. I was stunned by how many attacks occur by each of these animals a year, and we dive into why these attacks and deaths happen. Just be warned, it does get graphic.
If you'd like to learn more about the illegal wildlife trade, check out the documentary I mentioned up top,
