Airware of San Francisco, California, recently deployed several unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to monitor wildlife and detect poachers in Kenya's OI Pejeta wildlife conservancy. A three-person team from the company was deployed to the reserve in December 2013 to test fixed- and rotary-wing UAVs, including the UASUSA Tempest with an endurance of 90 to 120 minutes and the Aerial Ranger. Following a successful trial in the conservancy, OI Pejeta expect to be put into service in March or June.
