Arghakhanchi, November 5, 2026 — The Division Forest Office Arghakhanchi has urged the public not to create or circulate misleading AI-generated photos and videos involving protected and sensitive wildlife.
The office said it was concerned about the growing use of artificial intelligence to produce images and videos that are subsequently published on social media.
According to Keshar Khadka, information officer at the Division Forest Office, the office has received reports of artificially created images and videos depicting protected and sensitive wildlife, particularly tigers and leopards, in ways that do not reflect reality.
Khadka said such misleading content could create false impressions about wildlife conditions and behaviour and spread negative messages about human-wildlife coexistence. It could also cause unnecessary fear among the public.
The office has urged people to refrain from producing, publishing or sharing such material to prevent the spread of misinformation and negative messages about wildlife.
It has also asked social media users to check the authenticity of content and consider its potential impact before publishing or sharing it.
