Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The Asian elephant, a keystone species of immense ecological and evolutionary significance, is under intensifying threat from habitat fragmentation and human-elephant conflict. Reliable population estimates are critical for effective conservation planning and understanding demographic processes, yet traditional methods like dung counts can be skewed by detectability issues and environmental...
