🌍 Insights: Wildlife Disease and Conservation 🌍 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a devastating illness affecting members of the deer family, including deer, elk, and moose. Caused by a misfolded protein called a prion, this fatal disease takes up to 24 months to show symptoms, which include severe weight loss, behavioral changes, and increased drinking and salivation—giving infected animals the eerie nickname "zombie deer." 🦌 Since its discovery in 1967, CWD has spread across 27 U.S. states, parts of Canada, and even reached Europe. Monitoring and managing CWD is critical to preserving wildlife populations. At Wildlife Drones, we are committed to providing innovative drone technology to aid in the monitoring and tracking of wildlife diseases like CWD, helping researchers gather vital data more efficiently to safeguard these precious species.

About us
For over 20 years, Founder Dr Debbie Saunders has worked as an ecologist and studied the movements of small migratory birds. Frustrated by the limitations of radio-tracking manually, Debbie was inspired to develop a practical solution with wide-ranging applicability. Wildlife Drones is now an award-winning start up that is currently working across Australia and abroad to track the movements of some of the world’s most endangered species. At Wildlife Drones, we are reinventing animal tracking research from the ground up. Our innovative drone tracking technology is paving the way for improved research outcomes. We’re all about empowering those in the field to collect more data, more often and keep track of their animals like never before. So, what if we told you that tracking animals didn’t have to be hard?

🌟 Customer Spotlight 🌟 We're excited to share this fantastic review from Matt Kanode, who recently worked with Wildlife Drones to implement our Dragonfly system! "We had a great experience working with Wildlife Drones during (and after) our purchase of the Dragonfly system. Fantastic customer service and prompt responses. The radio tracking system will fill a gap in operations, allowing us to locate collars in real time, leading to reduced time in the air and improved monitoring and counts. It's been a pleasure working with the folks at Wildlife Drones, and I appreciate the personal touch of Paul in sales and Phil in technical support. When we need help, they have been there to quickly offer technical support and hear our feedback on improving the system." Thank you, Matt, for your kind words! We’re proud to support your wildlife tracking efforts with reliable, cutting-edge technology and a dedicated team. 💚 #wildlifedrones #radiotracking #radiotelemetry

Floreana Finches "Flight Home": Q&A WITH PROF. SONIA KLEINDORFER As part of the Floreana Island Restoration Project, 510 native finches have been reintroduced to Floreana Island, Galapagos. This initiative, led by multiple conservation institutions, aims to restore the island’s ecology by eradicating invasive species like rats and reintroducing endangered species like the rare Medium Tree-finch. Wildlife Drones played a crucial role, using cutting-edge drone technology to track these finches post-release, ensuring they thrive in their natural habitat. 🦜🌱 Learn more:https://hubs.ly/Q02VB9B_0 #wildlifedrones #radiotracking #radiotelemetry #floreanaisland

Our Texas Tour Has Come to an End! 🌵 We’ve wrapped up an incredible journey across Texas, and we’re so grateful for the warm hospitality and all the amazing people we met along the way at presentations and demonstrations. Our tour kicked off at the Rolling Plains Quail Research Ranch, where we were inspired by the fantastic conservation efforts on the ranch. Huge thanks to Ryan and Mitchell for showing us around and sharing their insights! Next, we headed to San Antonio for a memorable presentation and demo at the Bracken Cave Preserve with Bat Conservation International. We had an incredible time learning more about bat conservation and showcasing our technology in action. 🦇 Our final stop was at the Annual Meeting of the Texas Section Society for Rangeland Management, where we connected with passionate professionals dedicated to sustainable land management. Thank you, Texas, for an unforgettable tour! Until next time! #WildlifeDrones #radiotracking #radiotelemetry #dronetracking #dronetelemetry #battelemetry #batconservation #quailresearch
