## Resource

Drones and AI are revolutionizing bird conservation in Queensland, enabling rapid, accurate bird counts that free up experts to focus on critical habitat protection. What began as a local project has become a global effort, with scientists from 11 countries contributing images from penguins to storks to train an open-source AI model. This powerful, free tool is designed to combat the biodiversity crisis by scaling wildlife monitoring worldwide—especially vital in vast countries like Australia—offering a scalable solution to protect vulnerable species for future generations.
