The PangolinEdge device is currently in the first stage of Research & Development. Deployment test in Namibia show very promising results.
Tracking collars are currently the best practice for understanding animal movement and have provided insights into the resources required for the survival of Pangolin. However, Pangolin behavior makes it very hard to keep these device (working) on the animals for long.
Smart Parks has been asked by several conservation organisations to see if we can develop a reliable Pangolin tracker.
We are currently testing the following prototype:
Dimensions: Body 55mm long, 35mm wide, 25mm high / weight 65 grams
