There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
It seems weird to me that in 2018 they still use a archaic method like a radio collar. In America (don't know if this is done anywhere else) you can put a tracking microchip in your dog or cat. It has your home address, phone number, a tracking ID, and other info right on a thumbnail sized chip that is inserted in the back of your pet, around the shoulder and all the info can be read with a scanner. It's a very easy incision, quick and easy "surgery". Less than 20 minutes. Yet here we are using large, cumbersome radio collars. You would think they could put a chip in a leopard or a lion without much fuss.
