Wildlife Recovery Support
Available only in states where sUAS assisted recovery is legal.
Ethical, Low-Impact Aerial Support for Wildlife Recovery
In jurisdictions that permit it, RATTLIR offers limited big game recovery assistance using the same advanced thermal imaging and aerial search capabilities employed in our Search and Rescue operations. This service is focused on helping authorized individuals locate downed game safely and efficiently, while minimizing environmental impact and disturbance to surrounding wildlife.
We strictly follow all state regulations, permitting requirements, and ethical guidelines to ensure responsible use of aerial technology in wildlife recovery.
What We Do
We provide optional, low-impact aerial assistance to help locate legally harvested big game in areas where sUAS recovery is permitted. Using thermal imaging and high-resolution optics, we support hunters, landowners, and wildlife managers by improving visibility in dense vegetation, steep terrain, or low-light conditions.
How We Do It
RATTLIR deploys advanced drones equipped with thermal sensors, zoom cameras, and precise GPS marking. Our pilots conduct controlled, minimally intrusive flights that locate heat signatures, identify probable recovery paths, and provide coordinates to assist on-the-ground teams. All operations follow property permissions, wildlife regulations, and ethical recovery standards.
Why it Matters
Wildlife recovery is about respect - respect for the animal, the land, and the laws that govern responsible hunting. Aerial support increases recovery success, reduces time spent tracking, and minimizes ground disturbance. Most importantly, it ensures that harvested game is located quickly, efficiently, and ethically. RATTLIR provides this service only in states where sUAS assisted recovery is legal and always in coordination with those authorized to participate.
