Implementation of Wildlife Animals Detection and Protection System using Raspberry Pi

Abstract: This paper is focused on the protection of crops from the wild animals which often damages the crops by self- feeding or simply by running over the field and crushing the crops. In this paper, Raspberry Pi is used to detect and track the motion of the animals. Using image processing techniques the animal is detected precisely and a tranquilizer gun is used with sedatives to control the animals. Also the information would be passed on to the nearest forest officers and villagers selectively, thereby reducing the crop damages and also efficiently conserve the wildlife which often gets affected from the existing methods like electric fences or other human weapons.
