About the Newsletter
This newsletter explores how applied artificial intelligence is being used to study, monitor, and improve animal behavior and welfare. We look at developments ranging from wildlife research in the field to technologies used in the care of zoo, farm, and companion animals.
Each post highlights real tools, research projects, and emerging technologies that are shaping how scientists and caretakers understand animals. Topics include AI-powered behavior tracking, automated species identification, vocalization analysis, and new systems designed to monitor animal health and stress.
As AI becomes more integrated into research and animal care settings, important questions arise: How accurate are these systems? How do they change the role of human observation? And how can these technologies be used ethically to improve animal welfare rather than simply increase efficiency?
The goal of this newsletter is to make these developments accessible while providing thoughtful analysis about how AI is changing the way we study and care for animals.
