It's obviously important to Australians to make sure their koala population is closely tracked when the suckers live in forests and climb trees all the time, with drones.
A new project from Queensland University used a drone equipped with a heat-sensing camera, then ran the footage through a deep learning model trained to look for koala-like heat signatures.

It's similar in some ways to an earlier project from in which dugongs — endangered sea cows were counted along the shore via aerial imagery and machine learning. But this is considerably harder.
Drones are everywhere now. Just a thought.
