Camera trapping to observe undisturbed behavior

Digital documentation of otters in the wild allows us monitor populations, determine group size and group composition, observe family interaction and unseen behavior.

It helps us understand them better. We get to know how different species use same habitat, co-existence between humans, otters and other animals.

Using media for outreach and awareness

 
Digital Media is a powerful tool in conservation. Camera traps document Otter behaviour in the wild- a side that is not seen by the local community. This footage captures the curiosity and playfulness of these animals, and helps create a more positive perception of the species.
 
 
Conservation of any species depends on the understanding of the next generation. Educating children about Otters, their habitats, and ecological importance through interesting digital media helps them realize the value of such unique animals.
 
 
Exposure to images and videos creates curiosity about the species¸ generate support for conservation efforts, and build appreciation among policy-makers.
