Description
Protecting Scotland’s forests by achieving sustainable deer densities is vital but requires considerable effort and resource. The inherently secretive nature of deer makes this additionally challenging, further compounded by the deers’ awareness of search ‘giveaways’, such as engine noise. Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) wants to explore approaches that improve its ability to locate deer – which vary considerably in size - and so create greater effectiveness in the management of deer densities by Wildlife Rangers. The ideal solution will provide real-time exact locations, with accurate counts and species identification.
