Hello,
what device, with the longest battery life, is best suited to monitor a group of reintroduced Cebuella pygmaea, and where can it be purchased?
Thank you.
What would you like to monitor? Ultrasonic Vocalization, Position, other parameters of the marmoset ?
We have equipment (SONOTRACK) which can record and analyze the ultrasonic vocalizations of the Cebuella pygmaea. Although it is designed for use with laboratory rodents, it can record all animals that vocalize in the ultrasound frequency range. We have also mobile versions of the equipment.
Depending on your requirements different batteries can be applied which enable shorter or longer measurement periods.

Hello Ronald,
thank you for your help. However, we are aiming to monitor the position of the individuals, preferably by using a technique, such as radio telemetry, that allows us to control the animals from the sanctuary as the release site is of difficult access.
I guess the best way would be to use a GPS tracker on the animals.
There are expensive and cheaper solutions. Maybe you can use a pet GPS tracking device such as this one:

More expensive, but available for small animals (such as birds) are these trackers:
