A Conceptual Framework for Safeguarding Endangered Animals Through Wireless Body Sensor Networks
Abstract: Since life began on Earth, incalculable creatures have come back and gone, rendered extinct by naturally dynamical physical and biological conditions. Though extinctions occur naturally, scientific proof strongly indicates that this rate of extinction is far on top of the natural or background rate of the past. The main reason driving this higher rate of loss is habitat loss. Over-exploitation of wildlife for profit-making purposes, the rough guide of destructive …
