AI Boosts Wildlife Protection in Central Africa
Story 3
A new AI-powered system is giving rangers a powerful tool to protect endangered animals in Gabon, Congo, and Cameroon. Microphones across the rainforest can detect gunshots in real time, allowing teams to respond immediately to poaching threats.
The system filters out natural jungle sounds, accurately locating poachers and alerting authorities. Researchers say it could eventually identify gun types and other human activity, while remaining low-cost and open-source.
This innovation promises to make wildlife conservation more effective and could be used worldwide to safeguard vulnerable species.
