Australian scientists used drone-mounted thermal cameras to safely monitor dolphin health in real time, detecting vital signs without stress.
Australian researchers have developed a non-invasive method using drones with thermal cameras to monitor dolphin health, detecting surface temperatures and breathing rates without capturing or stressing the animals.
In a study published in the Journal of Thermal Biology, over 40,000 thermal images were analyzed, and results showed drones accurately measured physiological signs in 14 bottlenose dolphins at Sea World.
The technique, validated against close-range readings, could help assess dolphin health in the wild, supporting conservation efforts amid growing environmental and human-related threats.
Further testing in diverse wild conditions is planned.
