Thermal‐UAV assisted detection and relocation of roe deer fawns in managed grasslands
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.Advancements in modern fodder production have unintentionally increased wildlife mortality during grass mowing operations. Roe deer Capreolus capreolus fawns are particularly vulnerable because they remain motionless as a predator‐avoidance strategy. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with thermal sensors offer a promising method for detecting ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.We propose an evidence‐based system that prescribes context‐specific exclusion dates based on three simple criteria: target species, latitude and agricultural activity. This framework would allow policy to account for complex phenological variation, significantly improving breeding outcomes, while remaining administratively manageable and scalable.
