So far drones have been used to ferry tuberculosis tests around Papua New Guinea, and track deforestation in Sumatra. Now drones are being used to keep track of wildlife from the jungles of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to the shores of British Columbia (BC). The drones are watching hippos to elephants, and even antelope in the DRC, the goal is to help catch and deter poachers who hunt big game. In BC drones are watching whales and checking if they are malnourished. Great applications for this new high-flying technology.
