Overview

• Drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and AI will track Grevy’s zebras in Kenya and snow leopards in Kazakhstan.
• The technology can identify individual animals by unique coat patterns, similar to human fingerprints.
• Trials have shown the drones can capture detailed images, such as vein patterns in a zebra's ear from 120 meters above.
• The project aims to create a widely accessible UAV platform for global conservation efforts.
• Future deployments could monitor endangered species worldwide in a non-invasive and cost-effective manner.
