The concept of restorative justice is being explored as an alternative approach to resolving conservation violations caused by ignorance, as demonstrated in the I Nyoman Sukena case in Indonesia. This research aims to examine the potential of restorative justice to deal with such cases more humanely and effectively. A normative juridical method was used, focusing on legal regulations and case analysis relating to wildlife conservation.
