So, a question for the KB massive.
A bit of rustling going on down south where we have a few sheep and have lost some in the past. It is not practical to have cameras everywhere and most of the farm is out of cell phone range. Have been thinking of some kind of tag/microchip in the animal and some sensors either at the gate or perhaps heavy duty stuff on one of the roads so if they go past in a truck we can be alerted immediately. Even if we can't catch them we will have a date stamp that we can link to security camera footage. It is too late when you see the gate swinging the next morning or via a head count a few weeks later.
I know the freezing works don't want microchips getting in to the food chain but ear tags are the first thing to get ditched so looking at options there. Just wondering if anyone has heard of any detection system like I am talking about, a beefed up version of what you see at the supermarket?
