Combining artificial intelligence and local ecological knowledge to document the largest ever-counted Cape buffalo mega-herd

2025-11-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Large aggregations of wild mammals are declining globally, sometimes before they can be scientifically documented and their ecological value understood, although non-scientists may be aware of these phenomena. Video recording of wildlife by non-academics is becoming more frequent with increasing activities of humans in natural habitats. This opportunistically-collected material can document rare...
