HUMAN-ANIMAL CONFLICT RESOLUTION Sustaining a Healthy Coexistence Between Humans & Animals Est. 1999
|
|
|
As
human populations continue to expand and natural habitats are lost, human-animal conflicts are increasing over living space and resources in the United States and
throughout the world.
Established in 1999, Little Blue Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, helps cities, counties, and communities successfully resolve human-animal conflicts, by designing coexistence plans that focus on human safety and conservation.
We utilize scientific, progressive, integrated, step-wise intervention to design win-win solutions for all stakeholders, including the animals. We provide both short and long-term proven strategies that permanently resolve human-animal conflicts.
|
We influence change in wildlife management policies and procedures used by local, state and federal agencies through collaboration and leading by example. We train law enforcement personnel, animal control officers, and park staff on the most current and effective techniques to resolve human-animal conflicts, and to modify problematic behavior of wildlife. |
 |
Our Mission is to sustain a healthy coexistence between human & animals through education, science and innovation.
- Our work is independent and collaborative, with a strong emphasis on advancing change through informed citizenship.
- Our scope is both National and International.
