As a founding partner of the ArgusWild AI platform in 2020, Wild Entrust Africa has transformed from a pioneering collaborator to a driving force in AI-powered wildlife monitoring. Drawing on over three decades of conservation experience, they provided crucial expertise, resources and data that helped shape ArgusWild into a powerful conservation tool. ​Their leadership has inspired adoption across the KAZA TFCA region, creating a network of wild dog conservation programs collaborating on ArgusWild.
 

The results have been significant: Wild Entrust's research team has analyzed over 25,000 photographs across 56,000 square kilometers, tracking 553 individual wild dogs through 248 sightings across three countries. The platform's efficiency is demonstrated daily in their field operations - identification tasks that once took hours of manual work are now completed in seconds. This was highlighted when ArgusWild instantly identified "Kahlua," a breeding hyena they've monitored since 2006, from among 600+ individuals in their database. 

Through their early adoption and ongoing work with this technology, along with their tireless advocacy for the adoption of the platform, Wild Entrust has not only enhanced their research capabilities but has also significantly contributed to the advancement of carnivore conservation and research practices across southern Africa.
