RESEARCH
CRUCIAL DATA AND CAMERA TRAPPING

Conservation Research

We support critical on-the-ground research to guide conservation management and provide data crucial to the protection of endangered and keystone species.

Keystone species are animals that have a disproportionately large influence on the ecosystem even though they are not very abundant. Preserving keystone species, like the leopard and rhino, is therefore important to ensure the health of the ecosystem.

Crucial Data + Camera Trapping

We support critical on-the-ground research to guide conservation management and provide data crucial to the protection of endangered and keystone species.

Keystone species are animals that have a disproportionately large influence on the ecosystem even though they are not very abundant. Preserving keystone species, like the leopard and rhino, is therefore important to ensure the health of the ecosystem.

OUR RESEARCH PROGRAM PROVIDES:

Camera traps that gather data being used in university research studies in South Africa. The studies provide crucial data in the management and conservation of several keystone species, like the leopard.

Camera trapping is frequently used in wildlife research. It has been especially useful in counting and identifying elusive carnivores and studying their behavior.

How Do Camera Traps Work?

How Do Camera Traps Work?

The camera trap is a digital camera connected to an infrared sensor which can “see” warm objects that are moving, like animals. When an animal moves past the sensor it causes the camera to fire, recording an image or video to the SD card for later retrieval.

The Baobab Conservation Team manages the cameras we sponsor. The cameras are checked on a weekly basis to ensure they are working properly. At this time batteries are changed and data cards are swapped. Data from the SD cards is downloaded and cataloged.
