Abstract

The sustainable management of natural habitats and animals is a critical concern in today's world, considering the increasing degradation of ecosystems attributable to human activities. This study focuses on an assessment of habitat suitability in Karbi Anglong utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach and strives to present a thorough overview of the habitat suitability evaluation approach. The study used AHP to calculate the significance of each factor based on their ecological function and then categorized and ranked the factors to determine the outcome. The results showed that the areas where human occupancy is low and dense forest regions are areas of high suitability, while areas with agricultural expansion and built-up areas were less suitable or not suitable at all. This approach can help in identifying and prioritizing areas for elephant conservation and habitat management.
