Wildlife Research Initiative

About Us
Expertise and Dedication – Our team is made up of innovators, hunters, and conservationists dedicated to creating solutions for wildlife research. By blending hands-on experience with advanced technology, we provide tools and insights that help researchers tackle some of the most pressing challenges in conservation.
Who We Are
-
Mission and Vision – At WiseEye Tech, we turn challenges into opportunities through innovation. Starting as South Louisiana hunters addressing wild pig damage, we developed tools like the HuntControl app and AI-powered wildlife cameras to transform wildlife monitoring. Today, our Wildlife Research Relations initiative empowers conservationists with advanced tools to revolutionize monitoring and promote sustainable ecosystems, blending science and technology for a thriving wildlife future.
-
Key Partnerships – We proudly collaborate with organizations such as Turkeys for Tomorrow and the University of Florida, to expand our impact in conservation and scientific discovery.

Commitment to Innovation – From our HuntControl app to our data collecting cameras, WiseEye continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible. Just as we’ve helped hunters and ranchers collect valuable data to enhance their practices, we’re now leveraging our technology to support conservation efforts and biodiversity research worldwide.

Our Impact
Predator Monitoring: Cameras were used to assess predator activity around bait sites and turkey nests, helping researchers understand predator impact on wild turkey populations.
Behavioral Studies: Observed turkey feeding behavior at bait sites, particularly around corn, to assess risks such as mold toxin exposure.
Reduced Human Interference: Cellular transmission capabilities of the cameras allowed researchers to monitor sites remotely, minimizing disturbance to wildlife.
Nest Monitoring: Cameras documented predator presence and behavior at active turkey nests and control sites, aiding in studies on nest success and reproduction rates.
Support for Multi-State Conservation Efforts: Facilitated field research across multiple states, contributing to the broader understanding of wild turkey population declines and habitat challenges.
Enhanced Data Collection Efficiency: Advanced photo management software expedited data analysis, enabling faster insights and actionable strategies for conservation.
What Professionals Are Saying
Researchers in Tennessee used cameras at nearly 50 turkey nests in spring 2023 to document predator activity, turkey behavior, and hatching success.

“We placed cameras near active turkey nests and also at random sites for a month during the incubation period for each nest. It allowed us to document what predators were present around active nest sites compared to the surrounding landscape. With TFT and WiseEye’s help, we have a tremendous data set that explains predator activity around nest sites and how that compares to the landscapes we’re studying. We’re very excited about the predator aspect of our work, and we have thousands of photos that we are processing now.”

Research aimed at understanding how wildlife feeding impacts wild turkey predator communities and turkey behavior around bait sites.
Use of WiseEye Cameras:
• WiseEye cameras are being utilized to monitor predator activity around bait sites in near real-time, minimizing human interference.
• Researchers are observing turkey behavior at feeding sites, particularly their interaction with corn, to assess potential health risks such as aflatoxin exposure.
Key Contributions:
• WiseEye cameras provide critical data on how turkeys and predators interact with bait sites, enabling analysis of feeding patterns and predator impact.
• The real-time capabilities of the cameras enhance data collection efficiency, allowing researchers to focus on interpreting findings and shaping conservation strategies.

“One problem we have is we have so many images we don’t know what to do with them. Just having the processing power to screen through and identify what’s in the images—that itself is critical.” – Dr. Marcus Lashley, PhD – University of Florida
