Today is #WorldGiraffeDay 🦒Check out the very important work of Monica Bond&team @UZH_Science& @WildNatureInst: triggeredbymotion.com/furthe… Their individual-based demographic study provides important knowledge for the development of conservation measures to help the species survive.

We collaborated w Monica Bond to develop the magnetic wall memory SPOT THE SPOTS. It conveys how & why she & her team use #AI & pattern recognition software in their research: news.uzh.ch/en/articles/news… Currently part of the exhibition BITS, BYTES & #BIODIVERSITY @nationalpark_ch 🦒

Giraffes in #Tanzania appear to be holding up well in the face of climate change. But heavier rains and other impacts still present a threat. @UZH_Science @WildNatureInst #wildlife sustainability-times.com/env…

Using AI against biodiversity loss 🤖🦋
With "Bits, Bytes & Biodiversity", the first special exhibition in the newly arranged @nationalpark_ch Center in Zernez, UZH addresses the use of modern technologies in ecology.

The Masai #Giraffe Study, led by Monica Bond @UZH_Science, has been concluded. Based on data from around 4,000 animals on an area of around 25k km2, it's the largest individual-based giraffe demographic study in the world – made possible thanks to #AI: triggeredbymotion.com/furthe… 🦒
Giraffes in the East African savannahs are adapting surprisingly well to the rising temperatures caused by climate change. However, they are threatened by increasingly heavy rainfall, as researchers from UZH and @penn_state show: news.uzh.ch/en/articles/medi… @UZH_Science @arpatoz
