At Terrasense we are partnering up with some of the best in their fields that ensures we create a viable tool to aid conservation and research.
Francois Meyer, sometimes known as Kudu, is a conservation ecologist and active member of the IUCN SSC Pangolin Specialist Group. With broad experience in the wildlife industry, his passion lies in conservation research, endangered species, and supporting the unsung heroes of conservation. Meyer specializes in the reintroduction of Temminck’s pangolins recovered from the illegal wildlife trade, focusing on post-release monitoring and refining release protocols to maximize their survival. His fieldwork and expertise have been instrumental in shaping South Africa’s current release and monitoring guidelines. Actively engaged in conservation research, Meyer collaborates with multiple stakeholders to bridge the gap between science and on-the-ground conservation efforts.
Emma De-Jager has spent over 15 years in wildlife rehabilitation, working with more than 100 species of mammals, birds, and reptiles. She has successfully rehabilitated and released over 500 animals back into their natural habitats. Emma is a co-owner at Umoya Khulula. Working with Pangolins every day, her expertise will be extremely valuable in our pilot - ensuring the Pangolin's well being is always the first consideration.
