IUCN has one of the world’s most comprehensive ranges of authoritative publications, reports, guidelines and databases for conservation and sustainable development. They publish or co-author more than 100 books and major assessments every year, along with hundreds of other reports, documents and guidelines.

 This handbook outlines current problems in human elephant conflicts, and includes an introductory guide to Elephant Behavior. More pragmatic

instructions like Elephant Safety Guidelines, Instructions on how to use the Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) Toolkit, and further strategies like Chili Fences and Chili Bricks will be the most useful in the field.
