DSC_1774 Stoat (Mustela erminea) trapping. Monitoring and maintaining extensive stoat trapping networks over rugged terrain is particularly time-consuming and expensive. Small 'celium nodes' attached to the sides of wooden trap boxes, and communicating through solar powered 'celium hubs' may allow future wildlife managers to automatically monitor trapping success from the office. This wireless sensor network is being developed by Simon Croft of ‘Encounter Solutions’. Photographed above Thompson Sound, Fiordland for Predator Free 2050 Ltd *
