BCR 181: Wildlife Telemetry

On todays show are my next guests, Michael Lanzone, CEO; Casey Halverson COO; David LaPuma, PhD., Director of Global Market Development from Cellular Tracking Technologies. This conversation will give you a deep dive into the world of wildlife Telemetry.

The founders of Cellular Tracking Technologies have over 40 years of telemetry research experience between them. In 2007, when not satisfied with the current products on the market, they created Cellular Tracking Technologies in order to bring the newest innovations and highest levels of service to the wildlife research market. Cellular Tracking Technologies is a small and nimble company that constantly strives to make improvements to our telemetry units and data visualization systems for both customer and our own satisfaction. In 2019, we are celebrating our 12th year as the world’s leading wildlife telemetry company.
