App: Nose print identifies lost dogs
A South Korean app scans the nose print of dogs and identifies lost animals with 99 percent accuracy.
Nose print as unique as a fingerprint
A South Korean startup has developed an AI-based app that scans a dog's nose print and feeds it into a database. A dog's nose print is just as unique as a human's fingerprint.
99% accuracy
The team at Yonsei University has refined its AI to an accuracy of 99%. Anyone who finds a lost animal can take a photo and see whether it matches an image in the app. The app also works for cats using their entire face. More on the topic of animal welfare.

More on the subject of recreational hunting: The scientific evidence is presented in the overview Studies on the Effects of Recreational Hunting.
The position of IG Wild beim Wild: IG Wild beim Wild rejects recreational hunting. Our model is the canton of Geneva, which has managed without recreational hunting since 1974: without hunting seasons, without hunting dogs, without driven hunts, without high seats, without the animal cruelty and crime that go hand in hand with hunting season elsewhere. What has worked there for over fifty years disproves every position paper by JagdSchweiz. An association that bases its policy on claims it refutes in its own documents is not a professional organisation, but a factory for misinformation.
