of ninety days truce in the tit for tat us china trade war the world's largest supplier of liquefied natural gas is leaving the biggest oil coal to we bring you the stories that are shaping the economic world we live in counting the cost on al-jazeera. the relationship between humans and animals has always been one with elements of conflicts but as the number of people on the planet continues to grow it's becoming increasingly strained and imbalanced with the world's human population approaching an extraordinary eight billion sprawling settlement some activities are encroaching

on animal habitats more than ever scientists estimate humans are driving species extinction at around one thousand times the natural rate largely due to have a touch loss and climate change we urgently need to find better ways to live together on our shad planet i'm juliet peace and i'm here in richmond australia to see how team of scientists and volunteers are helping qualls to survive in jungle and i'm russell beard in bangladesh for the locals are learning to co-exist with their tiger neighbors. and of was one time to have a one million qualities in the way the relentless pace of human expansion the numbness and dropped by almost eighty percent is ninety ninety one of the human population is still growing and now that way and that number is only said to growing putting for the precious on surrounding mama without immediate intervention

. but a group of local residents and experts are trying to reverse this trend. the last land that hugs a stray east coast is one of the most desirable places for human settlement but it's also a prime koala habitat as a result increasing numbers of these must a been forced to live within the city. john hung a is a wildlife fit and founding member of the quality research network. you brought me terry this an area that i would have thought could possibly have qualis been so busy why why this area this park really illustrates like this in a really good why hell the mistress of having wallace sufficing like it turns on the rides because often like cross annoyed when the difficult to say and draw is just i'd say them so they'll often get you on this writing trick destroyed is really a hot spot for all of this in the area certainly when they get on the ride along

with the zero one trying trying to get rid of us are exposed to significant injury and this obviously and so there's really a whole range of threats they're exposed to in the sort of in more. than the local experts like john a committed to protecting the koala before it's too late. but with a population scattered throughout the city the first step to saving them is monitoring them. john and his team have been intensely studying a population in the motion bay region at three thousand today they're tracking by radio signal. a crate tag name sonny. so the guys are heading up the chain now a bit of a client to catch capture koala so they can then check it out for the health check

later on. through. when i got. the letter rather than. just trying to yank a. bit and i felt my heart. attack and his to face that just like this just a lot but on top of he said. that if you were not quite well sunny's or in a loss of blood. this pretty. now sunny will head off to the vet where he will be

screened for diseases. koalas a car and he listed as under threat if nothing is done they could be extinct in less than fifty is the seriousness of the situation isn't lost on some local residents who are trying to tackle habitat ration. care and nice to me really to what do you guys doing here today i was just making sure this little ass dyke had a mockery and so we're now into warsaw anting qualify for the trees here being eucalyptus yes there are two hundred spaces of co-op if you can it's in queensland but koalas eight hundred twenty two so we have to be very specific about what we found and why how important is this for the incredibly important because this area will never be cleared for any sort of development so we're surrounded even though

you can't see it with high density or been development so if we can increase the carrying capacity of the koalas it will encourage them to me. we just might try for them to not be just one cool. upwards of five hundred lives per day moving from tree to tree said i browse bicycling all day because eucalypts a fairly new pool and it's. all right so how many more trees are cut to do half yes and of three or four over the. planting trees provides one solution for protecting the koala but as urbanization continues roads and railway lines will inevitably expand putting these animals in harm's way. currently up to three hundred killed by vehicles here. but i'm meeting up with that john again he wants me to see an intervention which is making a difference and around my line. substantially awarded trying

to cope but but there are a few additions there's a post on royal to help the water launch get off the ground how do they know it's only guests initially they don't know. the familiar with the habitat as it was some when we put these impacts in and trying to landscape they have to learn to use it but the essential feature is really all that we we put a koala prevents along the road coral and that ensures that they don't go on to the road corridor and get killed and if they do work there while along the fence ultimately dollar end up finding one of more of these culverts and so with a bit of exploration a lot from guys trying to get an idea of how effective they are john in the tame and push up motion sensitive camera that's in these range of of wardlaw if using the codes including that on. so he's a koala going into a group of tollbooths who explored

a culvert but didn't go through it. and then we've got a group of kangaroos using a possum another koala rather different. and then tell me on one of the echo all those. helping koalas navigate the urban jungle is essential to boosting the numbers but the most significant factor in ensuring their survival is disease prevention. back at the clinic was sunny the caption is ready for his check outs. that amy robbins is about to give sonny a sedative this is just settling in so he can get his injection here to go into it all sense of security making things about to happen. you know what a good boy what a brave little boy. making

sure he's got good. time which is a sense of how good glad pressure is. to look at the bladder not. over say a big important thing. so you cause a psystar test so that causes inflammation of the bladder wall i guess media has reached epidemic proportions amongst koalas in australia with a huff the population infected if left untreated it can cause infertility blindness and average generally his blood as compared. sunny is in the clear tell me about the significance of you know when you're testing six media. projects diseases being charlotte if you can control that one factor then you can actually turn around to call the population. side by going in there and turn the treatment of the vaccination against company out actually coming around and. now. you know it's phenomenal would never have come

to a big significant project in the hours before so three valuable scientifically and i'm going to throw in my mom and i'm going to he's waking up yet as he's making out with matt. and. before letting the koala recuperate i mean fitz another tried to call them. it's now time for sonny to be released at john studies side that had some amazing business. the fact they get so we can show you might be individuals healthy but the population is on a growth trajectory now so it was on quite a state. downward decline towards extinction of the sun now we have we're getting

around to twenty percent right around him which is just downingtown around so maybe i got a. good life. there. as a global. population continues to grow cities a sprawling further more land is needed to grow food more infrastructure is being built through fragile ecosystems. take roads rampant road building over the last century has divided the into six hundred thousand fragments over half of these are less than one square kilometer too small

to support significant wildlife populations with twenty five million kilometers of new road expected by twenty fifteen the struggle for animals to survive in the face of development will only get tada resolving these kinds of conservation conflicts is far from simple the solutions that work best around the world are the one where local people have the ownership of the process of finding the solution people need to be able to value the species that they're close to and by value i mean perhaps culturally or spiritually they want to have a species around it requires inputs from all sorts of different areas of expertise it's not a matter just for biologists we need social scientists economists people who would know how to work with poor communities they all have to work together to figure out how to solve these conflicts.

just a century ago there was thought to be over one hundred thousand tigers prolonging swamps and jungles. but now numbers have declined by a staggering ninety percent. and heading through the summer been mangled forest in western bangladesh is one of the last remaining havens for the bengal tiger and there's often conflict with local villages walsall depend on the forest for survival i've come to meet a network of volunteers and conservationists who are coming together to try to stop the violence and save the tigers process. all right bangladesh's population has doubled from eighty to one hundred sixty million in just forty years forcing humans into what was once exclusively the tigers to rain alex amazing i mean you can hear . the sound of fire just play out of a huge margin of it right up again. here

in ma just on the edge of the national park there really do seem to be people everywhere. ok charge too much in that this area is home to tigers too but it is that's where the conflict comes in. conservationist my alarm runs tiger a network of volunteers dedicated to changing attitudes and reducing human time to violent how many targets do you have here and it's on the minds we have one hundred six with the historical data about two to three tigers killing by the local villagers every year but if that the total population is estimated just around one hundred two to three starts to sound like a very big number but started to fifty two men killed every year and wound on this

in fifty eight billion a year and just a little number thirteen off to you this is not a little number i mean like want to week. can you talk to us about the interface like how are they coming into contact with people here and what's the result. in some areas which don't have that marcelo feel given up we'll be right in between forest and when it is in that part of from the one. that comes out on the boards into the building. shimon tiger interaction here is fraught with violence and see if. i'm on my way to a village right on the frontier of

a conflict zone. so that edge that you can see there that substance in the forest right there and there's nothing between the tiger habitat and human habitat. we can understand how scary it must be because everywhere you look there's livestock you know and they they build these fences but i just made of those sticks and very like gauze. here many of not just seen tigers from a far different direct encounters with the. local fisherman has a story to tell. can you talk to somebody about your experience here and i'm with the tigers and i'm going to must not think oh sure look i just wish me luck on the foot of that was before then i see i see the one. for. the sea. oh well yes you could see that

little puncture marks from music for you thinking when you were on the ground did you think did you think you were going to die at that point the bit. about that point to get just look at bunny as a god but it. was a little mark up the bullet. so behind the skate with his life that those who don't need behind families to fend for themselves. i've been told are around a thousand women known as tiger wood who is in this region. i'm here to meet a lady called rita who lost her husband through a tiger attack twenty years ago. we know that the funding is maybe just a hundred yards away did you think of leaving it at that is that a look and as i get what i want to. ask you then as i.

say i'm adamant. i have made up. but. like many people here greta prays to burn baby before entering the forest to collect wood or honey she's agreed to take me to me to. hold. this in country. and theistic in. this particular god he's here to protect the people against attacks from that. but it seems to me the might not be enough the fact is that the tigers habitat is shrinking while humans is expanding one against the other disastrous soaps.

as the predator the top of the food chain the tiger his role in the sunderbans ecosystem is pivotal if he becomes extinct the whole system will collapse. to prevent unnecessary killings my boob and his team have pioneered an education program for local villages is aim is to change attitudes towards tigers i'm here in a community center enjoy money where the tiger scouts are having a lesson more to do win a tiger into the future. if you. well that's a good good i. can do can i see how many people here have seen a tiger if it's over. and so why can you tell me why is it important to come here and learn about saving the tigers. and it was

obvious what this is it should come to us about this that it won't even just the woman that if anybody has said that this custom got out there i'm going to come be able to say baby no she was the one if i don't have anybody but me get i did a little basket on the back way back i was. all right guys come on then so what this is the idea is that this is a pledge to save the tiger i guess so. we're not signing our name in blood. high five pinkeye five feet high five for a well done guys to do good work. outside the center the community tiger response team assembled. convince a bunch of people it's a good idea to start chasing the wild tiger number one motivating factor for them to saving the tigers goes if they can save her from the world would be saved and

their lives would we be and surely that's what i'd. like us out there is an awesome god to get up and out of that if you write the pledge. that i see and know nothing about some line. it's not right to discover that i. write. about myself. this may look a little unorthodox but tiger is a naturally solitary hunter's only attorney. isolate to prey being surrounded by a group of chaotic orange colors making strange noises be enough to scare them away and as long as there's an escape route tiger will use it that's amazing and you say those forty tigers that had been managed he said yeah so is that basically forty tigers think you should back into the into the forest and so i thought it wasn't if

it wasn't for you doing what you're doing here and changing the kind of attitudes you think it's fair to say that those fourteen tigers. mickael might be killed that might be killed by the owner. right. looks like we're getting ready to move i think the guys are going to go into it with. probably more of a training mission and the money doesn't have to take a stake to a certain amount of time. ok. he's got the presence of terry that. the doctors are looking at normally with aberration. so if ten years ago tiger came in here

and he. would you have killed in. the us ten years ago. again but there you go to have eleven. mohnish get. it back and what then. can you tell us about the first time that you chased off a tiger with the team going to look i think it's from the what if they didn't want to. get to. to get along without the grandmother they needed the camera. to drama mama busy backus if bush little lady would. sense the same for all do you feel the same as from the u.k. one of the yes sir. did you not just say no because the cameras.

are out there so much and thanks for going to take me i'll give you your stick but you're very safe around you guys thanks so much thank you thank you thank you. alright ok listen if i feel safer with these guys or even though we know there's well tell us right there that they're all pows what were they doing and you know maybe if in the future communities or other countries can follow their example. maybe there's hope for the tiger. thank you. guys. even with a growing human population and shrinking wilderness there are ways that people and wildlife can co-exist. in india mobile phone technology is being used to woman workers of elephants passing through t. plantations when they're spotted an s.m.s. alert is sent to everyone in the area preventing surprising counters and in
