Animal Molecular Breeding 2024, Vol.14, No.1, 130-140 http://animalscipublisher.com/index.php/amb 138 the computational and sampling constraints associated with genomic tools in wild species is crucial. This involves investing in infrastructure and training to build capacity for genomic research in biodiverse regions. Educational initiatives, such as field courses that provide hands-on training in molecular biology and real-time DNA sequencing, are essential for empowering local scientists and conservationists. Third, continued development and refinement of machine learning algorithms and remote sensing techniques are necessary to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of wildlife monitoring. This includes improving the integration of acoustic analysis with camera trap images to monitor population dynamics and track endangered species. Finally, fostering collaborations between researchers, conservationists, and policymakers is vital to ensure that the insights gained from genomics and remote sensing technologies are translated into effective conservation actions. By leveraging these advanced technologies, we can make informed decisions and take targeted actions to protect and preserve wildlife and their habitats for future generations. In conclusion, the integration of genomics and remote sensing technologies holds great promise for the future of wildlife monitoring and conservation. By addressing current challenges and building on the progress made, we can enhance our ability to monitor, manage, and protect wildlife populations in an ever-changing world.
