Satellite imagery has given tiger conservation a significant boost, enabling researchers to monitor tiger populations and their habitats more effectively. For instance, in Nepal, satellite telemetry is being used to study tiger behavior, movement, and response to disturbances.
Monitoring Tiger Populations and Habitats
Satellite imagery has become a powerful tool in tiger conservation efforts. Researchers can now monitor tiger populations and their habitats more effectively, providing valuable insights that can inform conservation strategies.
Studying Tiger Behavior and Movement
One example of this is the use of satellite telemetry in Nepal, where researchers are studying tiger behavior, movement, and response to disturbances. This technology allows them to track the movements and activities of individual tigers, providing a deeper understanding of their habitat requirements and the impact of human activities on their populations.
