We demonstrate that fixed‐wing drones equipped with dual thermal and RGB sensors can effectively detect Antarctic fur seals, including those concealed in tussac grass at South Georgia. Thermal imagery significantly improved detection rates compared with RGB alone, while a combined workflow provided the most accurate population estimates.
