Drones are not only interesting for hobby pilots or for creating atmospheric hunting videos, but they can also be a great help in everyday hunting and game management operations.
Of course, tracking wild animals with a drone in order to hunt them afterwards is usually hardly compatible with the concept of fair hunting - as it is important to give the game a chance. However, for game management and territory management, drones can be a great help to hunters:
Fawn Rescue
In spring, it is the task of hunters to protect fawns that are born in meadows and fields from mowing operations. Doing this on foot at eye level is often an almost insurmountable task. With drones, large meadows can be searched for fawns in a very short time. Not only many hunters but also farmers now use drones for this purpose.
Wild Damage Prevention
Wild damage can also be located in a very short time, and appropriate countermeasures can be taken, such as positioning suitable hunting stands.
Territory Management
With aerial footage, it is easier to provide hunting guests with an overview of the territory, and suitable locations for hunting stands and traps can also be determined.
