    Thermal Drones Replace Pellet Counts for Multi-Species Wildlife Inventory

    Swedish startup Viltförvaltning.se offers AI-driven wildlife inventory using drones equipped with thermal cameras. The service maps all large game across a property in a single session, delivering species-level counts, movement patterns and damage assessments within three days. The approach replaces manual methods where volunteers count moose droppings on sample plots over an entire winter season to estimate density for a single species.
