A company that listens.

Wild Spy specialise in creating customised and niche solutions for your wildlife research and management challenges. We do this by listening to what your problem is and what questions you want answered. The Wild Spy team comprises ecologists, conservation biologists, and engineers. The combination of these disciplines ensures that we understand the challenges of ecological research, and can also provide technical expertise and guidance for devising wildlife monitoring programs. We know that every project is different and requires different solutions. Our commitment to our customers is that we will work with you to whatever extent is needed to ensure the products we deliver will play their required role in answering your research questions. So you can just purchase some equipment or ask us to be involved in your research project.

Wild Spy is very passionate about developing wildlife monitoring technology that will make a difference in the industry. We are achieving this by providing products and relevant advice that enable researchers and managers to gather the data they need. We believe our biggest asset is our ability to problem solve and invent novel solutions – we are not your run-of-the-mill telemetry company.
