thermal imaging drones

Carnivorous Tasmanian devil Mary escaped from a quarantine facility at Paradise Country theme park on 2 June and was found 2km away two weeks later in an unstable condition. She was taken to a hospital after evading capture through thermal imaging drones and zookeepers.

Neukgu, a 2-year-old wolf who escaped from South Korea's O-World zoo on April 8, was captured nine days later using thermal imaging drones. The search involved police, military, and public attention, with Neukgu being part of a breeding program for Korean wolves. The zoo remains closed for security reviews after multiple animal escapes.
