Drones have gained marked popularity in recent years as they become more accessible to the masses. But more than just toys, drones, a.k.a. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are also becoming increasingly used to show a new side of conservation - that from the skies! Researchers and conservationists alike are employing these new aerial technologies to gain new perspectives, gather different types of data, and often, leave less of a human footprint on the otherwise pristine natural landscapes in which they work.  Join us as we discuss these new conservation technologies with Serge Wich, UAV specialist and founder of Conservation Drones. Serge shares with us his work in the field and why more and more researchers are taking to the sky to expand the great ape conservation landscape.
