The invisible guardians: How wildlife cameras, telemetry and digital technologies reveal the secret lives of animals

Gain surprising insights into the secret lives of wildlife through modern surveillance techniques. The conference will provide insights into how photo traps and other technologies are used for research and management purposes. Are our forests and the animals living in them monitored around the clock? Who actually flies and roams through our local region at dusk and at night? Find out more about the principles of hunting law and data protection regulations when using thermal imaging cameras and the like in practice. Join in the discussion about how natural hunting still is and what the price of technology is. You will also have the opportunity to test various technical devices on site as part of a regional buffet.
