The state government announced plans to set up an AI‑driven surveillance hub to track lions and other wildlife, aiming to improve conservation efforts.
The Gujarat government has unveiled a new initiative to establish an AI‑powered surveillance centre dedicated to monitoring lions and other wildlife in the state.
The centre will employ advanced camera systems and machine‑learning algorithms to detect and track animal movements in real time, providing data to conservationists and forest officials.
Officials say the technology will help curb poaching, reduce human‑wildlife conflicts and support scientific research on animal behaviour.
Construction of the facility is slated to begin in the coming months, with a target launch date set for the end of the year.
