GPS-enabled tracking collars allow scientists to learn a lot about wild animals, but the devices do have one major drawback – limited battery life. A new tracker gets around that limitation, as it's ...

Researchers developed a computer vision framework for posture estimation and identity tracking which they can use in indoor environments as well as in the wild. They have thus taken an important step ...

Keeping up with the journeys of wolves and welfare of wild horses has never been easier. With a GPS wildlife tracker powered by an animal's own movements, University of Copenhagen researchers have ...

Tagging wildlife alters animal behavior for days, reports new research. The findings highlight a need for longer tracking periods to better understand animal behavior in the wild. The corresponding ...

Today's ecologists have more data than ever before to help monitor and understand the world's biodiversity. Yet researchers ...

Four endangered numbats, a type of marsupial, have been fitted with radio tracking collars ahead of their release into the ...

When the next pandemic threat looms, help may come from an unexpected source: wild animals. In a new study led by Prof. Ran Nathan from the Movement Ecology Lab at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, ...

Princeton researchers installed trail cameras and animal-tracking devices in Gorongosa National Park, enabling the study of animal behavior during climate emergencies. Robert Pringle's involvement ...

In their review, the team demonstrates how biologgers can be a powerful tool for testing hypotheses and refining theories via case studies of elephant seals, whooping cranes, and mule deer. These case ...

To study the behavior of elusive animals, scientists routinely tag them with GPS location trackers. But such devices' battery capacity limits how long they operate, often bringing an early end to ...

UC Santa Cruz researchers say biologging devices like the ones attached to the seal at center can test our theories of how the natural world works, not just track animal behavior. Biologgers allow us ...
