Abstract

As China’s ecological protection has increased, the number of wildlife populations has increased, and human-animal conflicts in areas where the ecological niches of humans and wildlife overlap have intensified. Private remedies for wildlife damage are that the subject who suffers from wildlife damage or is threatened by wildlife damage and relies on private power to take measures to safeguard his or her rights and interests. The legal effect of the private remedy for wildlife damage is reflected in the local government’s obligation to compensate and prevent, the procuratorate’s obligation to supervise the government’s administration and initiate administrative public interest litigation, as well as the obligation to file lawsuits against the subject of private remedies, the court’s obligation to conduct a reasonable trial, and the criminal liability or civil liability of the subject of private remedies.
