Centre for Research and Conservation

Centre for Research and Conservation (CRC) is lending their expertise in the use of camera traps–a digital camera connected to an infrared sensor that captures images of animals – and acoustic sensors to help AWF assess and monitor wildlife abundance and anthropogenic pressures in several Central African sites. These tools help AWF to collect data to monitor trends of hunting pressure and in wildlife abundance and diversity to help AWF guide conservation efforts and gauge the impact of its work.
