AI + Drones Are Transforming Wildlife Conservation - Here’s How

Описание: EP 196 | Artificial intelligence and drones are giving conservationists a powerful new way to protect wildlife but how does data actually change policy on the ground?

In this episode of Pente Spotlight, Grace and Joshua explore how AI models and drone technology are being used to study seal populations and behavior in ways that were impossible just a few years ago. By replacing slow, manual counting with precise aerial data, researchers can now measure not only population size but also stress responses caused by tourism and human activity.

The conversation highlights how these insights help authorities redesign wildlife viewing zones, set visitor limits, and create smarter conservation policies that protect ecosystems without shutting down tourism. The episode also looks ahead at how the same technology could scale to other species, from penguins to dolphins, shaping the future of data‑driven conservation.
