Tigress with radio collar in Tadoba Andhari National Park, India. GPS animal tracking is a process whereby biologists, scientific researchers, or conservation agencies can remotely observe relatively fine-scale movement or migratory patterns in a free-ranging wild animal using the Global Positioning System (GPS) and optional environmental sensors or automated data-retrieval technologies such ...
Motus (Latin for movement) is a network of radio receivers for tracking signals from transmitters attached to wild animals. Motus uses radio telemetry for real-time tracking. It was launched by Birds Canada in 2014 in the US and Canada. As of 2022, more than 1,500 receiver stations had been installed in 34 countries. [1]
Recent advancements in tracking technology have improved the ability to monitor animal migration without the need for recapturing. Wildlife Drones , an Australian company, developed a drone-based radio telemetry system to track small, mobile species like the Swift Parrot, one of Australia’s most endangered birds.
