Chumnubri Rural Municipality

Eighteen trap cameras have been installed in the Samagaun and Samdo areas of the Manaslu Conservation Area in northern Gorkha to study increasing human-wildlife conflict. The initiative aims to identify the species and causes behind recent attacks on livestock like yaks and horses, which have led to significant economic losses for local farmers. Monitoring has begun in the first phase, with cameras placed in high-incidence areas.
