Innovative Animal Tracking Methods

Researchers are using data loggers and machine learning to track animals in the wild. By attaching data loggers to animals in the lab and matching the data with their behaviors, they create training sets. This allows for accurate tracking of wild animals like kangaroo rats and rattlesnakes. Machine learning is advancing behavioral ecology and conservation ecology by providing unique insights into animal behavior.
