Abstract
In Kabupaten Aceh Jaya has displacing habitat of Sumatran Elephant (Elephas maximus sumatranus), because the change of forests became an estate monocultures. This has resulted in the elephants stuck in small blocks of forest which has not enough to support the elephant in the long term. This condition has been trigger of conflict between the elephant to the people. The data collected was done through: field observation, interview to respondents by purposive sampling and data conflict from related institutions. Over a period of 5 years, occurred 45 times conflict between the elephant with people in Kabupaten Aceh Jaya of the year 2010 to 2014 in 32 different locations. Direct observation in the field, the points scene conflict between human and elephant on this area can be explained that: was only at an altitude of ≤ 100 meters of the sea level; but based on slope the field stood at 0.72 area conflict is at slope ramps (0 – 15%) and 0,28 in 15 – 30%. Based on multiple regression analysis, showed that the altitude and slope of conflict location do not have significant effect to crops damaged.
