Poaching is a multi-billion dollar illegal industry, and AI is being used to combat it. Techniques such as infrared cameras, game theory, sound analysis, reinforcement learning, drones, and 3D printers are being employed to identify and track animals, detect poachers, disrupt the poaching market, and preserve wildlife. Other solutions such as trap cameras and existing datasets are being used to help with the preservation of wildlife and stop poaching.
