This medium sized squirrel was seen thrice at Bogoli and Dhekiajuli camp sites (Figure 3e). Pallas's Squirrel confronts threats including habitat loss due to deforestation, urbanization, poaching and predation by domestic animals. These challenges endanger their populations, necessitating conservation measures to safeguard their habitats and mitigate the conflicts. This species is a Least Concern according to the IUCN Red List and is listed as Schedule II species under Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and Appendix II in CITES (Table 1).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03B38798FFC5FFE10A7DFBB9FAE2FB33	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

During the paddy season (October to December), elephants predominantly venture into village areas and also destroy paddy fields and human houses (Figure 3a). Sometimes, this results in life-threatening consequences for both humans and elephants. Therefore, people use electric fences, shot guns to mitigate with elephants. The Asian Elephant is an Endangered species according to IUCN Red List and is listed as a Schedule I species under the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and Appendix I to CITES (Table 1).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03B38798FFC5FFE10A7DFF5EFA42FE5A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This species was sighted many times, ranging from six to eight individuals in one herd during the study period near the village areas and Bogoli beat office (Figure 3c). But it should be noted that we also observed 10 to 15 individuals in one herd before the study period in the study area. Habitat fragmentation, decreasing the number of food trees, various anthropogenic activities and conflict with humans may be the reasons for reducing the population of this species. This Vulnerable primate species is expected in the forest and is a Schedule I species under Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and Appendix I in CITES (Table 1). The conservation of this species is primarily challenged by conflicts between humans and wildlife.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03B38798FFC5FFE10A7DFE55FDB2FD25	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
