Automatic tracking and alarm system for eradication of wild life injury and mortality

摘要

This paper report explains the methodology to overcome the problem of human and animal injury and mortality due to the straying of wild animals out of the national parks and wildlife sanctuaries by the use of automatic tracking and alert system. Automatic tracking and alert system has been implemented by incorporating GSM and GPS technology in the form of a device that would be attached to the body of an animal and would be continuously monitoring the position of the animal with respect to the GPS defined boundaries set up inside a wildlife sanctuary or national park. In case an animal strays out of the GPS defined zone, an alarm system that will be installed in a human populated zone will go off, informing people about the approaching danger. This system is flexible, cost effective and easy to implement and can be beneficial for monitoring wildlife related complexities like poaching, railway and roadway accidents, train delays, destruction of vegetation and threat to human life on the occasion of straying of wild animals out of their habitation zone.
