Our Wildlife Survey Methods
Aerial Wildlife Surveys with Thermal Imaging
We use state-of-the-art thermal imaging drones to identify and monitor wildlife populations in even the most challenging terrains:
- Dense Forests and Thick Vegetation: Thermal sensors detect wildlife where visibility is limited.
- Upland and Remote Areas: Our aerial surveys minimise disruption while providing accurate location and distribution data.
- Real-Time Insights: High-resolution images and live data transmission allow for quick analysis and informed decisions.
Ground Damage Surveys
Our ground-based surveys assess the extent of wildlife impact on habitats
. We meticulously identify:
- Trampling, browsing patterns, and habitat destruction.
- Signs of encroachment across woodland, grassland, and agricultural sites.
The impact intensity on ecosystems to guide mitigation plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are wildlife damage surveys important?
Wildlife damage surveys assess the extent of habitat destruction caused by species like deer, Feral Wild Boar, and feral goats. These surveys are essential for identifying impact areas and implementing targeted mitigation strategies.
What species are most commonly monitored during a wildlife survey?
Common species include deer, wild boar, feral goats, rabbits, squirrels, and foxes. Our surveys provide accurate population data and highlight areas requiring management.
How are aerial and ground surveys different?
- Aerial Surveys: Use thermal imaging drones to identify wildlife in dense or hard-to-reach areas.
- Ground Surveys: Focus on signs of habitat damage, such as tracks, browsing, and undergrowth loss.
